Re: cuteNews - RSS news and podcast aggregator

I have no problems with https feeds but also not using the version from the repos because I am using qt4-network from cssu-devel.
QSsl is set to secureprotocols and I changed the user agent to ("Wget/1.19.5 (linux-gnu)").

For wget, called from cutenews, it could be a shell/environment problem so define the ca path like this in cutenews settings:

Code:

/usr/bin/wget --ca-directory=/etc/certs/common-ca -q %f -O -

Another possibility could be to create a file ".wgetrc" in your home folder with this content.

Code:

ca_directory=/etc/certs/common-ca

Maybe it needs another user agent try with:

Code:

wget -U "Mozilla/5.0"

It could be also that you need a new certificate. But without an example it is impossible to debug.

If nothing helps try wget with this option:

Code:

--no-check-certificate

Checklist(my system):

on cssu (stable or testing).
openssl1.1.0h and certificates from cssu-devel installed.
qt4 core and dependencies from cssu-devel installed.
cutenews1.3.1 installed.
N900 region to UK.

I can't find my uploaded modified cutenews, I think I posted it somewhere together with qmlbrowser. So I made a new one with version up and execute permission fix.

https://openrepos.net/content/halftux/cutenews

About the qlocale and region settings, cutenews gets somehow the date from it which seems to fail with a different region.

Re: cuteNews - RSS news and podcast aggregator

^ I was using cutenews 1.3.0 - the highest version that shows up with cssu-devel and extras-devel enabled - I did not know there was a newer one.
I am now trying your 1.3.1 and will report back.

FWIW, one of the podcasts currently not updating at all is
https://www.drabblecast.org/feed/podcast-m4a/

Yes it is buried in some thread and it is unknown that it works because nobody tried. So I will upload all related packages to openssl 1.1.0h to my openrepos repository.

Code:

deb https://maemo.openrepos.net/halftux personal main

Good I gave it only a really quick testing and maybe also forget to disable wget command.

I can confirm that this feed is working with v1.3.1.
I can also confirm that I see some pictures. (https://www.riskiq.com/feed/)

@Sicelo
Also your feed is working btw.*
https://mybroadband.co.za/news/feed

But I think there is still a problem with the date? I can't see the latest news? Is this correct?

Re: cuteNews - RSS news and podcast aggregator

Not understanding how this works. Installed your cutenews. Gave as an url this https://feeds.feedburner.com/eset/blog and also one for darkreading rss feed. I recognized both (though for darkreading the date was 1970) but from neither it fetch nothing to reed.

Updating the feeds works just fine now.
All dependencies and requirements are already the same versions as from your repo, or from *-devel.

I still have a problem with downloading some audio files - afaics this happens when the filename has too many "weird" characters in them, the Download shows "Failed: Invalid argument" (0%).
I thought I could use an URL opener to fix this, so I added via GUI (according to the example of post #1 in this thread):

Regex:

Code:

http(s|)://.+\\.mp3.+

Command:

Code:

/usr/bin/wget --ca-directory=/etc/certs/common-ca -q %u -O test.mp3

But the behaviour does not change.
I tried all sorts of permutations, e.g. Regex: .* (this would be my favourite - use the custom downloader for everything).

How do I even trigger this custom URL opener?
What I currently do is
long-tap on feed item => Enclosures
long-tap on URL => Download => don't choose anything, just "Done"
or
normal tap on URL => Open Externally
but nothing seems to be happening in either case?

Try to set your filename like this with "upper commas".

Code:

'weird_characters.mp3'

Maybe this helps but I can't follow you completly what you try to achieve. Or try to make some html notations with % bla for special characters.

Some enclosure downloads (audio podcasts) fail with cutenews' inbuilt capabilities (no extra commands defined anywhere)
I’m trying to use the URL Opener feature as described in post #1 but I’m not sure it’s doping anything at all. How do I
- define it
- access it from the GUI
??

Do you also use cutenews for podcasts?
Custom URL openers can be used to download Enclosures afaiu.

Never used cutenews before, but maybe starting to used it.

So I took the version from our repos and patched it. But now I recognized that on github there are some more commits compared to the version in our repos, and I think for what you would like to do, it can't be done with the "regexp" option. I think you need to touch the source code.

Re: cuteNews - RSS news and podcast aggregator

After following this feed for a while with feedcircuit app downloading it to sdcard for offline read I can recommend this: http://www.theregister.co.uk/security/headlines.atom

Interesting up to date information about cyber security related topics.

OK, let's concentrate on that first.

Here's a podcast that fails to download - the error message inthe Download window is simply "Failed: Error downloading http://stitcher.acast.com/..........".

However, the original URL is "http://open.live.bbc.co.uk/mediaselector/6/redir/version/2.0/mediaset/audio-nondrm-download-low/proto/http/vpid/p0858555.mp3" - so there's some redirecting happening.
(source: https://podcasts.files.bbci.co.uk/p02nq0gn.rss)

The log says:

So yeah, I can clearly see the server reply: Forbidden.

So wget manages to follow the redirects without getting thrown out.

I compared the last two links, they are similar but not identical; I guess the server generates new access tokens for each request. But why is wget allowed to download in the end, and cutenews isn't?

BTW, this isn't a one-off, I constantly download podcasts from this particular feed with wget because they constantly fail with cutenews.

Here's another, quite different example.

The error message in the Download window is "Failed: Invalid argument".

No redirection this time, but a weird URL: "https://play.podtrac.com/npr-500005/edge1.pod.npr.org/anon.npr-mp3/npr/newscasts/2020/03/01/newscast080812.mp3?awCollectionId=500005&awEpisode Id=810921169&orgId=1&d=300&p=500005&story=81092116 9&t=podcast&e=810921169&size=4500000&ft=pod&f=5000 05"

So here is what I did:
added feed

Code:

https://podcasts.files.bbci.co.uk/p02nq0gn.rss

Updating it and click on the *Topic Title*.
After this I clicked the top menu, then on Enclosures, then on the url and "Open url externally" the browser opens and ask to play with media player or to download. Clicked download and it is working, also media player is working. The button "Open URL in browser" is not working.

It seems I can't follow you what you did. I don't know how to use this url openers or if the custom download command really works.
The url is without ssl encryption so no problem for the browser.
Maybe you need to write an enclosure plugin. Don't know how the application works.

I did the same with the other podcast feed it has a ssl url but it is working too with this method.

edit: My test were done with the latest version from git and qssl correction and user-agent fix for app and client which hopefully solves all download problems. Released under cutenews 1.3.2

Ah!
What I do:

long-tap the enclosure URL and choose “Download”
a pop-up asks me to enter a command but I just leave that empty and tap “Done”

For most podcasts this works as expected.

It's good to know about an additional workaround though.
It works for the first podcast (BBC news), but NOT for the 2nd (NPR news).

Thanks for the new version!
Unfortunately no change to either example from my posts above.

For me NPR news (03-03-2020 5AM ET) is working. Are you on cssu stable or testing?
I think you need microb-engine and libnss3 from community-testing.
Can you make a package look up for maemosec if all packages are from devel?

Code:

dpkg --list | grep maemosec

Maybe I implement enclosure download with wget and will also look into region problem.
But it could be for region that qt has a locale region bug or that something need to be changed for the sql database.
In principle I managed to download also with other region settings also with https by patching qhttpresponse.cpp. But then I guess the database gives wrong time or date and cutenews behave as there were no new feeds. The source is very modular and flexible but you need to make changes at many different location in the source.

Mystery partly solved!
I still had an URL opener defined, and for some reason it activated for that download - and no other download afaics - but did not download anything.
The log shows it:

This is the urlopener:

Code:

[user:~/.config/cutenews] $> cat urlopeners 

[urlopeners]

1\regExp=http(s|)://.+\\.mp3.+

1\command="/usr/bin/wget --ca-directory=/etc/certs/common-ca -q %u -O test.mp3"

size=0

Of course, the question remains: why don't URL-openers and custom download commands work?

In case you still want to know about microb-engine and libnss3, afaics they're both on testing levels.
BTW, I'm using CSSU Thumb.

Code:

microb-engine:

  Installed: 1:20100401-1.9.2-5.2+0m5+0cssu3

  Candidate: 1:20100401-1.9.2-5.2+0m5+0cssu3

libnss3:

  Installed: 1:20100401-1.9.2-5.2+0m5+0cssu3

  Candidate: 1:20100401-1.9.2-5.2+0m5+0cssu3

Thank you for continued interest in this!
