Screencast showing the text glitch and segfault
I found the reason for the unreadable text. Turns out it is related to the recent change from the Oxygen to the Noto font. Setting another font in the profile preferences solved this. I can't reproduce the segfault anymore but maybe it would be useful to protect against a missing profile font. I can't reproduce - please update and let us know if you still have issues. As I said in my previous comment, the problem was, that the oxygen font was replaced by the noto one. Konsole had Oxygen set a default which was no longer there as it got deleted due to a packaging change. Switching the default font to some other font fixed the issue. I think a similar problem can be avoided in the future by letting Konsole fall back to another font if the one selected is no longer available. |
