Ncurses does not support 256 colours when using konsole. can_change_color() returns FALSE when using the default $TERM variable, and even when TERM is set to xterm-256color, init_color() does not work. This might be a duplicate of Bug 138740, not sure.

Yes, konsole will complain "Undecodable sequence: \001b(hex)\\" when init_color() is used. 

So this should be a duplicate of #233991, which contains more useful info.
