Trisquel 8.0 support ended in April 2021.
Please open a new issue in case it remains on the current supported release.
Cheers!
I can't reproduce this on Triskel 8.0. Could someone please post a current link to a website which provokes the error.
Package Konqueror needs to be removed from the repositories because of the aforementioned reason. It hasn't been fixed yet even in the current version, so still can be installed through a simple apt-get command.

Points to the fact that this is fixed in Parabola and gives links to diffs. What is needed now is the helper writing.
Still present in 12/1/12 version of 6.0
