Description Fran Rogers 2021-10-18 07:23:21 UTC

SUMMARY
When setting Konqueror to show a blank page on new windows/tabs, the Konqueror "about" page shows up in lieu of a blank page.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Settings -> Configure Konqueror. Select "Show Blank Page" next to "When Konqueror Starts"; click OK.
2. Open a new window or tab.

OBSERVED RESULT
The new window or tab displays the Konqueror about page.

EXPECTED RESULT
The new window or tab should display a blank page.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version: 5.23.0
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.87.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2
Kernel Version: 5.14.12-arch1-1 (64-bit)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
It appears that the issue is caused by a lack of a handler for konq:blank in KonqUrlSchemeHandler::requestStarted() in konq_aboutpage.cpp.
