[Bug 800493] Re: RSS block picks the wrong links for articles

 

It looks like a problem with the parsing of Atom feeds. Here's another
one that has comment links first:

  http://blog.libravatar.org/index.atom

According to the atom spec, we need to look for the rel="alternate" link
(or a link without a "rel" property -- assumed to be "alternate"):

  http://www.atomenabled.org/developers/syndication/atom-format-
spec.php#rel_attribute

So I guess we need to patch the pear module and then submit that patch
upstream so that we can hopefully drop it at some point in the future.

Title:
  RSS block picks the wrong links for articles

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Version: 1.4.0

  RSS feed: http://feeds.cloud.geek.nz/FeedingTheCloud

  If you click on any of the articles, you are taken to the comments
  feed for the article instead of the article page itself. This works
  fine in other feed readers (like Akregator and Liferea).

  It was also a problem on 1.3, see my profile page for example:
