Description peter_s_d 2010-07-21 13:21:10 UTC
Version:           2.4.3 (using KDE 4.4.3) 
OS:                Linux

This was previously reported as, 
<https://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=57826>.  

I have defined a second profile for Konsole called "root".  That is preserved. 
(Files are written to ~/.kde4/share/apps/konsole/ .)  

But, clicking on Settings -> Manage Profiles allows root to be checked and
shown in the menu (the menu obtained when left click-holding on the bottom left
corner of the Konsole window).  

After a reboot "root" is no longer in the menu, and it is necessary to go back
to Settings -> Manage Profiles and re-check it.  

Possibly this is a problem in writing to ~/.kde4/share/config/konsolerc, which would make this problem related to <https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=235529>, or then again it might be totally unrelated.  

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
as above

Actual Results:  
The menu item disappears on reboot.  

Expected Results:  
The menu item should remain after a reboot.  

OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.33.5-desktop-2mnb
Compiler: gcc

it may be unconfirmed but it has been present in konsole off-and-on for a *long* time.
right now it has reappeared in kdebase-4.5.3-1.fc14.x86_64 (konsole v2.5.3).

my profile entries a) lose their "show in menu" flag across konsole stop/starts
and b) some of the entries are magically duplicated in the 'edit profiles' panel
even though they are *not* duplicated in .kde/share/apps/konsole.

the lack of attention paid to konsole frightens me.
