            Bug ID: 414086
           Summary: Icon for Atom feed ignored
           Product: akregator
           Version: 5.12.3
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: feed parser
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: maarten at treewalker.org
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY

If I add an Atom feed, the icon at the URL inside <icon> tag is not displayed.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1. Add feed: https://nasauber.de/blog/weblog.xml

I borrowed this URL from bug 111507. It looks like the problem described in the
third comment of that bug is still present.

OBSERVED RESULT

A generic icon (globe) is displayed in front of the feed's entry.

When I test with my own feeds, the feed's icon URL is not even fetched from the
web server. However, a fetch of "/favicon.ico" is attempted (result: 404) by
the user agent "Konqueror/5", unlike the feed itself which is fetched by user
agent "Akregator/5.12.3".

EXPECTED RESULT

The feed's icon is displayed in front of the feed's entry.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: openSUSE Leap 15.1
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.17.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.64.0
Qt Version: 5.13.1

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Some Atom feeds do display icons for me, but I suspect these are loaded using
the hardcoded "/favicon.ico" URL instead of from the URL in the <icon> tag.
