Regression in Konsole's handling of command line parameters
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=366793

Per my comment upstream:

So, kio contains this code:

    if (d->service.terminal()) {
        KConfigGroup cg(KSharedConfig::openConfig(), "General");
        QString terminal = cg.readPathEntry("TerminalApplication", QStringLiteral("konsole"));
        if (terminal == QLatin1String("konsole")) {
            if (!d->service.path().isEmpty()) {
                terminal += " --workdir " + KShell::quoteArg(d->service.path());
            }
            terminal += QLatin1String(" -caption=%c %i %m");
        }


And konsole seems to no longer support the -caption command line option,
$ konsole  -caption="foo"
Unknown options: c, a.


One workaround we could implement (and probably upstreamable) is to patch kio to longer use the (deprecated) -caption commandline option.

Yay, upstream already implemented the fix to kio as I surmised, backporting.

kf5-kio-5.26.0-2.fc24 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 24. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-4bfcb7b83a

Thanks. Will pickup patched kf5-kio and test when pushed testing.

kf5-kio-5.26.0-2.fc24 has been pushed to the Fedora 24 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.

Sadly, the patch doesn't work for me with konsole5-16.08.1-1.fc24.

I additionally recognized it causing a regression, as it breaks launching program/script in terminal with konsole5-16.04.3-1.fc24.

Downgrade to kf5-kio-5.26.0-1.fc2 + konsole5-16.04.3-1.fc24 brings behavior back to normal.

Any ideas?

It fixed it for me, but I had to restart my session after installing kf5-kio-5.26.0-2 (*probably* stale kdeinit5).  Did you try testing after logout/login again?

Yes, I did logout/login, but as your feedback was positive, I did some extra testing with new shortcuts. This brought following conclusions:

Yes, it's generally fixed. But there are new restrictions about command line:

* $HOME/remaining/path don't work anymore. /home/UN must be used.
  Had $HOME in all my shortcuts.
* Command line options require now use of quotation marks "/path/to/script -opt"
  Don't know how to deal with this, when path needs quotation marks itself.

This is somewhat a regression, but I can live with this state.

Remaining regressions are likely because of KDE #366793.

This is indeed bug #1377017 = kde#366793.

kf5-kio-5.26.0-2.fc24 has been pushed to the Fedora 24 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
