1. Create a text file that contains more than 8k of text, e.g., i=0; while [[ $i -lt 90 ]]; do echo 123456789123456789123456789123456789123456789123456789123456789123456789123456789123456789123456789 >> /tmp/xxx.txt; i=`expr $i + 1`; done 2. Open the file in Kate and select al text via Ctrl-A, Ctrl-C 3. Go back to console and type the following line, hit Enter cat <<EOF >>/tmp/yyy.txt 4. Press Shift-Ctrl-V to paste into konsole. 5. Type EOF. 6. Compare the /tmp/xxx.txt and /tmp/yyy.txt files in any diff viewer. They are not the same. Reproducible: Always Expected Results: xxx.txt and yyy.txt are identical.
This is probably a kernel limitation/bug, see https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=539312
The problem is that this never used to happen in konsole before I reported the bug.
Hi, I'm from the Bugsquad team and we are triaging bugs on Konsole today. Thanks for reporting the bug. Application Version: 17.12.3 KDE Plasma Version: 5.12.6 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.44.0 Qt Version: 5.9.5 I followed the steps and diff showed the files are the same. Is this still happening on your system? Thanks.
no
(In reply to Vadym Krevs from comment #4) > no Thanks for the feedback Vadym. I'll leave this as RESOLVED because it seems fixed. On the mean time, we should wait a developer to see the bug and decide on its status.
