Bug Description
Binary package hint: akregator
It seems that very often the count of unread articles in Akregator is wrong. I will attach screenshots to show exactly what I mean. If there's something further I can provide just ask, I know this is a pretty vague bug report.

Installed from: Ubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Akregator displays a wrong count of unread messages for a group of feeds (please see the attached screenshot). The number is too low and the error carries over to the overall result that is displayed at the top level and in the systray. As a consquence, sometimes the icon doesn't notify me of unread messages even if there are some.
I've seen #107144 and #135170, but
1.) they're both marked as fixed whereas my screenshot is from KDE 3.5.6
2.) they both mention negative numbers, while I don't see any on my system
So either the bug is still around, or mine is a different issue.
I'm on an up-to-date Kubuntu system (edgy) with the latest KDE packages from kubuntu.org.
> akregator -v
Qt: 3.3.6
KDE: 3.5.6
Akregator: 1.2.6
I'm not sure about how to reproduce the bug but what struck me was that the miscalculation happens with a family of feeds from dradio.de. I noticed that the entries in these feeds overlap sometimes so that items are not unique across feeds (one item may appear in more than one feed). Maybe akregator is confused by this situation. But I'm just guessing ...
Expected behavior: Numbers that add up. :)
