Description Brian Daniels 2020-01-19 03:49:52 UTC
Description of problem:
Previously, konsole would:

Change the color of an inactive tab on the tab bar when activity occurred in it.

Display an icon on a tab that had the 'Copy Input To All Tabs In Current Window' option active.

Both of these have stopped working in recent builds.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
konsole5-19.08.3-1.fc31.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open two tabs in konsole.  Set the first tab to copy input to all tabs.
2. Type in first tab, which will also send the input to tab 2.
3.

Actual results:
No warning icon appears on the first tab to alert you that it is in copy mode.  The second tab does not change colors even though activity is occurring in its terminal.

Expected results:
Icon on tab one, color change on tab two.

Previous behavior

Screenshot attached with previous appearance, showing tab 1 icon indicating that input is copied to other tabs, and color change on tab2 due to activity.

Comment 2 Brian Daniels 2020-01-20 18:03:06 UTC
The change occurred somewhere between konsole5-18.12.3-2 and konsole5-19.08.3-1, likely in the backing KDE libraries.

Comment 3 Brian Daniels 2020-04-07 01:42:39 UTC
As of 19.12.1, the second tab changes colors again when activity is present.  The icon still does not display on the source tab.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 31 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 31 on 2020-11-24.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a
Fedora 'version' of '31'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 31 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 5 Ben Cotton 2020-11-24 18:28:55 UTC
Fedora 31 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2020-11-24. Fedora 31 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
