[Bug] Cannot subscribe Debian news RSS

Open TranslucentFoxHuman opened this issue 2 months ago • 0 comments

Describe the bug We cannot subscribe Debian news RSS (https://www.debian.org/News/news). When I try to add that RSS feed, the app displays “Processing feed error,” and I cannot add the feed.

I have confirmed that when I access the URL, the RSS feed XML downloads, and that the feed can be subscribed to in other RSS readers.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open 'https://www.debian.org/News/' in your favorite Web browser.
  2. Long‑press the 'RSS' button in the upper‑right corner, or right‑click and copy the URL. It should become 'https://www.debian.org/News/news'.
  3. Open Readrops, goto 'Feeds' tab, and tap '+' button in the bottom-right corner.
  4. Paste the copied URL into the input field labeled “Enter an URL.”
  5. Tap 'Validate' button.
  6. Readrops displays “Processing feed error,” and I cannot add the feed.

Expected behavior The feed should be added successfully without any errors.

Environment information (please complete the following information):

  • Account type: Local Account
  • App version: v2.1.1
  • Android version: Android 14
  • Device type: Xperia 5 IV
  • Store: F-Droid
