Description Nikos Chantziaras 2009-02-05 07:23:48 UTC
I've subscribed to Planet Gentoo's RSS feed (http://planet.gentoo.org/rss20.xml). However, the article "Christian Faulhammer: Emacs Daemon and 23 release schedule" gets feeded over and over again. My Thunderbird RSS inbox is full with over 20 copies of the same article, and every time the feed is checked for new items, this article gets downloaded again. Every time. The source of the article is:

http://www.faulhammer.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=267:emacs-daemon-and-23-release-schedule&catid=35:gentoo&Itemid=31

Yes indeed, and it's highly annoying. It does not seem to be a profile "damage" in Thunderbird either as using a fresh profile exhibits the same problem.

Also, before the switch to the new planet software, flameeyes' posts also showed up multiple times.

I guess the reason for that has to be somewhere in the Message-Id handling.
The Message-Id looks like this:

Message-Id: <http://www.faulhammer.org/index.php?option=com_content&amp;view=article&amp;id=267:emacs-daemon-and-23-release-schedule&amp;catid=35:gentoo&amp;Itemid=31@localhost.localdomain>

.. and it might be related to the (misplaced, I think) html-encoding of the URL.

Related RSS data:
<guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.faulhammer.org/index.php?option=com_content&amp;amp;view=article&amp;amp;id=267:emacs-daemon-and-23-release-schedule&amp;amp;catid=35:gentoo&amp;amp;Itemid=31</guid>

As you can see, the URL is html- (or xml-) encoded twice. One time for XML, which is required of course, and another time... because of.. who knows what.

Would be great to see this fixed :)

I think it's fixed now.
