Open SSH session to other Linux system 2. Enter command "sudo halt" 3. The other system will issue the message "The system is going down for system halt NOW! " 4.

In this case, the message is issued: "Write failed: Broken pipe" Actual Results: See above Expected Results: The session should be terminated to allow local commands again.
Thanks for reporting. This is a knwon issue. The problem is Konsole currently does not put some (potentially) blocking operations into separate thread. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 251351 ***
