Description Theo 2021-06-26 16:14:55 UTC

SUMMARY
The command line option '--profile' is ignored if there are running instances with the default profile and the target profile.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start Falkon with default profile:
   $ falkon
2. Start a second instance with another profile:
   $ falkon --no-remote --profile test
3. Try to control the second instance from the command line:
   $ falkon --profile test --new-tab www.falkon.org
   $ falkon --profile test --fullscreen

OBSERVED RESULT
The commands apply to the first instance using the default profile.

EXPECTED RESULT
The commands should observe the option '--profile' and apply to the second instance using the profile 'test'.
