--- Comment #6 from Geert Janssens <i...@kobaltwit.be> ---
While bug 354216 was marked as a duplicate of this one, it describes the root
cause much better: kde-open5 is not coping well with several http(s) variants.
As this bug is kept open and the bug 354216 marked as a duplicate, it may be
useful to change the title of this bug to reflect this cause.

I'm hitting this same issue mostly when clicking on links in mail messages in
KMail, presently with kmail 17.04.1 on Fedora 26. Before stumbling on this bug
I thought kde-open5 was mangling certain urls (like improperly escaping special
characters such as '#', '&', '?' and similar), but now I believe it's the
improper redirection handling that's causing most of it. So I'd be very happy
to see some progress on this bug.

Unfortunately I don't know the kde codebase at all so I'm not in a position to
answer Andrea's questions in comment 5. Can someone else chime in ? Thanks.

And lastly, the workaround suggested in comment 3 works for me for now.
