Sentry Crash Report:

Description kth5 2024-01-02 22:12:57 UTC
Application: konsole (23.08.4)
 (Compiled from sources)
Qt Version: 5.15.11
Frameworks Version: 5.113.0
Operating System: Linux 6.6.9-arch1-1 ppc
Windowing System: X11
Distribution: Arch POWER
DrKonqi: 5.27.10 [KCrashBackend]

-- Information about the crash:
Simply entering any command such as "ls" that will produce output seems to trigger an immediate segault. Sometimes just entering 10+ characters already does it.

Seems to only happen on bigendian ppc32. Same sources and dependencies on ppc64, ppc64le and riscv64 produce working binaries.

The reporter is unsure if this crash is reproducible.

-- Backtrace:
Application: Konsole (konsole), signal: Segmentation fault

Are you able to try on a Qt6/KF6 version?  Qt5/KF5 isn't being maintained any longer.

Git commit c2485b48743ae97fb15c6a503f0cb598ad30e887 by Kurt Hindenburg, on behalf of Luis Javier Merino MorĂ¡n.

Avoid UB on 32 bit targets

Shifting an operand by a shift amount greater than or equal to the width
of that operand results in UB, which can happen when shifting an
unsigned long on a 32 bit target by an amount from 0 to 63.

This is probably the cause of the crash at the following bug:
