Attachments: screenshots of before-and-after konsole profile

Description Luna 2020-11-06 19:48:26 UTC 
SUMMARY
I deleted all of the Konsole Profiles, made my own and set it to default, however when i restart the computer (or after about 10 minutes of session being logged in) the profile reverts to the original default.

Not sure what im doing incorrect here.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Settings > Manage Profiles > delete all extra profiles
2. Create and save new profile
3. Set new profile as default (right side of the menu)
4. Apply and restart.

OBSERVED RESULT
Konsole profile resets

EXPECTED RESULT
Custom profile remains default profile.

So I have this same basic issue, in the root account.
I first sudo -i and run konsole
Set profile up as I like it (black on yellow, 12pt font, 80x24)
Profile registers ok, shows up in ~/.local/share
Launch konsole & from the command line and it shows up as default: black background, tiny font.

If I use Shift+Ctrl+N it works as expected.

If I "Manage Profiles" and "Set as Default" and then switch to "Default Profile" it reappears. So it is stored but ignored on launch.

Bug confirmed on both of the following host systems:

Environment: Kubuntu 18.04.5 LTS (X client); Plasma 5.12.9
Fedora 32 Plasma 5.18.5 (X11 client)
Fedora 32 Plasma 5.18.5 (X11 server)

I, too, have this problem. I realized that once I enter the "Create profile" dialog, it creates the profile file in `~/.local/share/konsole` and as soon as the dialog is dismissed, the file disappears.

System:
- Arch Linux (Linux 6.0.2-arch1-1 x86_64)
- KDE Plasma 5.26.2
- KDE Framework 5.99
- Qt 5.15.6
