Bug#797524: <video> element in RSS crashes Akregator
Package: akregator
Version: 4:4.14.2-2
Severity: important
Some recent upgrades have caused Akregator to crash when viewing any
RSS entry with a <video> element. I confirmed that video is the issue
by copying one such entry to a local file and progressively reducing
the description down to:
<description><video/></description>
which would still trigger a crash.
As Akregator hasn't changed recently it probably isn't at fault, but I
don't understand the KDE packages well enough to guess which of its
dependencies is. I also couldn't find any recent upgrades to its
immediate dependencies so I'm mystified. I'm hoping you can reproduce
this and work out from the backtrace what's to blame.
Ben.
