Description Rex Dieter 2016-09-17 13:59:03 UTC 
I've a sample application shortcut that runs in a terminal, bc.desktop, that contains:
[Desktop Entry]
Name=bc
Exec=/usr/bin/bc
Terminal=true
Type=Application

This has always worked as expected, to run terminal app 'bc' inside a konsole.  After upgrading to konsole-16.08.1, this no longer works.  Now when I click the application link, nothing happens



Reproducible: Always

Comment 2 Rex Dieter 2016-09-17 14:04:02 UTC 
Quick-n-dirty cli test:

kioclient5 exec bc.desktop
Comment 3 Rex Dieter 2016-09-17 14:34:03 UTC 
So, kio contains this code:

    if (d->service.terminal()) {
        KConfigGroup cg(KSharedConfig::openConfig(), "General");
        QString terminal = cg.readPathEntry("TerminalApplication", QStringLiteral("konsole"));
        if (terminal == QLatin1String("konsole")) {
            if (!d->service.path().isEmpty()) {
                terminal += " --workdir " + KShell::quoteArg(d->service.path());
            }
            terminal += QLatin1String(" -caption=%c %i %m");
        }


And konsole seems to no longer support the -caption command line option,
$ konsole  -caption="foo"
Unknown options: c, a.

And, that seems to be related to bug #366793  :(
