Did the first 'root shell' come with Konsole, did you create it or was it copied over from KDE 3? Robert, the first one -- it came with Konsole. $ l ~/.kde4/share/apps/konsole/*.profile -rw------- 1 wrar wrar 182 Сен 21 18:11 /home/wrar/.kde4/share/apps/konsole/Dark bg.profile -rw------- 1 wrar wrar 239 Сен 21 17:44 /home/wrar/.kde4/share/apps/konsole/Shell.profile -rw------- 1 wrar wrar 270 Авг 23 21:48 /home/wrar/.kde4/share/apps/konsole/mutt.profile But profile manager shows 2 x mutt and 2 x Dark bg (but 1 x Shell, which is default), and if I set one profile to be included in the menu, its pair is also shown as enabled (though only one copy exists in the menu). Konsole as shipped by KDE does not have a 'root shell' profile, this is a deliberate choice on my part. The 'root shell' profile is an OpenSuSE add-on. Nevertheless, I had a look at the profile and there is nothing wrong with it, so I'll leave this report open. *** Bug 183456 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Every time I launch a Root User profile in openSUSE it defaults to a tiny 8-point font size. For some reason I am unable to alter this setting because these multiple root shell profiles do not retain the changes at next launch. I can delete and recreate them as much as I want, but they just keep coming back with the same settings. Adam, what self-populating root shell profile has to do with inability to save the settings? https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=184959 Created attachment 32447 [details]
shows the konsole profile
I have the same problem and it's going to be worser with ongoing time. I attached a screenshot with my profiles: * I created a "development" profile - ok * additionally I have 4 root shells profiles * and 2 empty profiles I cannot delete anyone of the last 6 profiles. The profiles are coupled. When I click on "select profile" either "root" or "Root Shell" or "", both of them are selected. ok, there are two profiles coming from openSUSE, not KDE4 itself /usr/share/kde4/apps/konsole/Root_Shell.profile from the package "kde4-konsole" and /usr/share/kde4/apps/konsole/Shell.profile from the package "kdebase4-workspace-branding-openSUSE" If I rename the suffix of these files, I have a clean environment (only my profiles located under ~./kde4/share......) But there is something odd with konsole behaviour with profiles located in global area: If I reactivated "Root_Shell.profile" in the global area, my konsole-plasmoid noticed that immediately and inserted 1(!) "Root_Shell" profile into the displayed list. Konsole itself doesn't show me the new available profile. If I restart the KDE4 session, Konsole presents now 2(!) "Root_Shell" profiles. Hi Harald - Please my comment #4. As I said, I don't want OpenSuse to ship this profile but there is nothing 'wrong' with it and that it doesn't work is indeed a bug in Konsole. Confirming that in Konsole 2.2.3 (on openSUSE 11.1), there is only one "Root Shell" profile in /usr/share/kde4/apps/konsole, but two "Root Shell" profiles appear in the "Manage Profiles" dialog. (There's also nothing in ~/.kde4/share/apps/konsole.) *** This bug has been confirmed by popular vote. *** The same issue takes place for Debian as well as for Suse. On open a new konsole window the application 'forgets' about all profiles, all of them become inactive but system-wide profile (from /usr/share/kde4/apps/konsole/Shell.profile) is active only. Checked on kdebase 4.2.4. I have on openSUSE 11.0 with latest KDE 4.2.4 rpm's following behaviour: The global "Root Shell" profile is correctly shown only once in the profile management. So I cannnot confirm comment #12 The curious empty global profile "/usr/share/kde4/apps/konsole/Shell.profile" (see comment #10) is listed twice if you open the profile management dialog for the first time. If you close the dialog and reopen it, it is also listed only one time. The local profiles are handled correctly - as always - so I cannot confirm comment #14 upd for comment #14: checked it on 2 different installations and found that it happens just after login. A new second/third/etc konsole window run during a session handle profiles more accurately. FYI, KDE 4.3 has some new code dealing with the Managing Profile dialog. It was not to fix this issue but it may have fixed it. In kde 3.2 Beta2 ("release 138") under openSUSE, the duplicate "Root Shell" profiles still exist (I see 2 of them) and I am unable to delete the duplicate.
This specific bug can probably closed since KDE 4.3, at least I have no longer duplications in the profile management. The not-named Shell.profile from openSuSE will be named up from openSUSE 11.2, see: http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=492290 The profile management is still not bug-free, current bugs in KDE 4.3 are here reported: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=204715 |
