Bug ID: 434203
Summary: Never Ending Loading on Falkon Pages
Product: Falkon
Version: 3.1.0
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: now...@gmail.com
Reporter: max.k.schill...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
After updating qt5-webengine to 5.15.3-2, some pages do not finish loading in
Falkon. Some sites will initially load normally(eg. Youtube), but after
navigating to another part of the site (eg. from homepage to subscriptions),
never stop loading (despite having seemingly finished) and cannot be
stopped/reloaded. Other sites (eg. Twitter) never stop loading at all. Others
still (eg. Google) load and navigate normally.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Update qt-webengine to 5.15.3-2
2. Restart computer
3. Open Falkon browser
4. Navigate to a website (more complex sites tend to trigger the behavior)
5. If the website initially loads, navigate to another page
OBSERVED RESULT
The tab icon and Stop button indicate that loading is still occurring after all
content is displayed. Clicking the Stop button produces no result.
EXPECTED RESULT
Page loads to completion, tab icon ceases loading animation, reload button
reverts from Stop to Reload
