Description ValdikSS 2019-12-03 14:44:57 UTC
Description of problem:

After updating from Fedora 30 (where quiterss-0.18.12-3.fc30 is the latest) to 31 with quiterss-0.19.0-1.fc31, I can no longer see my RSS feeds. The program starts like it's a first run.
I reported this problem in Bohdi Fedora 30 build of 0.19.0 version: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2019-7a72d69956

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
quiterss-0.19.0-1.fc31


How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install QuiteRSS 0.18.12 or earlier and configure it
2. Upgrade to QuiteRSS 0.19.0 or newer

Actual results:
No old configuration is used.

Expected results:
Old configuration is used, old RSS feeds are readable.

Comment 1 ValdikSS 2019-12-03 14:56:41 UTC
Fixed by moving ~/.local/share/data/QuiteRss/QuiteRss to ~/.local/share/QuiteRss/QuiteRss.
Patch in bug 1485714 doesn't seem to be applied.

I'd rather call this a workaround than a bug.

For reference: A patch can be found in this pull request: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/quiterss/pull-request/2#request_diff

@Ti.Eugene: I've had the patches lying around for 2 years. Can you please include them?

Comment 3 Christian Stadelmann 2019-12-04 00:14:04 UTC
By the way: Upstream decided to ignore this bug: https://github.com/QuiteRSS/quiterss/issues/1023

Comment 4 Eugene A. Pivnev 2019-12-10 10:53:07 UTC
I not applied that patch because quiterss 18.x was not built with qt5 at all (too many errors on compiling).
I'm tryinig to solve problem (https://github.com/QuiteRSS/quiterss/issues/1228), but today workaround above is best way.
Seems it is not bug because qt4 and qt5 paths are incompatible with each another ("This is not a bug - this is a feature" (c)).

I propose to
1) publish quiterss 19.2 into repos as is (it is not published yet because of this bug report)
2) close this bug with NEXTRELEASE flag (or NOTABUG)
3) and wait for solving in upstream sources as developers will deside.

That's fine with me.

Don't forget to remove old db (rm -f ~/.local/share/QuiteRss/QuiteRss/feeds.db) before starting new (0.19.2-3) build.
(if you want to import old feeds).
