#18704: WP_Widget_RSS widget outputs error if 0 posts found in feed. Should output
"No posts found"

 Severity:  normal        |   Keywords:  has-patch dev-feedback
--------------------------+------------------------------------
 The output function for WP_Widget_RSS does a conditional check to see if
 the feed has returned an error, by checking if $rss->get_item_quantity()
 returns false. If it does return false the output says "An error
 occurred," which may not be true if the feed just has no posts yet.

 This can be remedied by changing the conditional as I have, to check if
 $rss->get_item_quantity() is identical to false, so if the method
 get_item_quantity returns 0 an alternate else if will output "No posts
 found."
