All,
Hello David,
In Thunderbird 128.3.3esr if I check the RSS Recent Package feed from
Arch, Thunderbird hangs showing the check is continually ongoing and never
finishes. This takes a continual 143% CPU (about 1/3 of the 4-core i-7)
It gets the Recent Packages just fine, but never stops.
Checking with tcpdump the connection to 95.217.163.246 initializes just
fine with the QUIC protocol and then continues with the data transferred.
Which execat feed URL are you checking? There are multiple, that's why
I'm asking! It works just fine for me, so maybe you are checking on a
different URL 😊
Christian, I have
Feed URL: https://archlinux.org/feeds/packages/
Store Articles In: Archlinux/Arch Linux Recent Package Updates
Then I have core-testing and extra-testing I follow that are are subfolders of
the main feed:
Store Articles In: Archlinux/Arch Linux Recent package updates/core-testing
Store Articles In: Archlinux/Arch Linux Recent package updates/extra-testing
It was set up ages ago, so I don't recall the exact method. I also monitor the
Recent New updates which is:
Feed URL: https://archlinux.org/feeds/news/
Store Articles In: Archlinux/Arch Linux Recent news updates
That feed is working fine. It is hanging on the Recent package updates feed.
Well if you recently upgraded thunderbird (check /var/log/pacman.log) a
good first step would be to see if it works with the old version.
You can do this using the Arch Linux Archive[0], for example via the
downgrade script. Just note that being in a state of partial upgrade is
not supported generally[1].
I suspect this was 128.3.2esr or 128.3.3esr. I know 128.3.1esr was working. I
think I'll delete the feeds and re-add them in Tbird. Now the RSS Feeds page
for arch lists separate feeds for every repo (and they all work fine in KDE
akregator). So maybe it is the old feed and the way Tbird broke out the
sub-feeds when it was added years ago that is now causing problems??
Worth a try.
