ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 Axel 2020-08-11 19:40:17 UTC
I can't see this bug in Arch Linux with the same Plasma and Framework versions for Konsole 20.04.3 and 20.08.
Comment 2 Christoph Feck 2020-08-17 18:30:18 UTC
Which terminal program or shell are you running? Konsole itself doesn't handle those keys.
Comment 3 adithyadsilva777 2020-08-17 20:44:40 UTC
I'm using konsole 20.04.3 with shell zsh 5.8.
Comment 4 adithyadsilva777 2020-08-17 21:18:56 UTC
Seems like it was a problem with zsh, and not konsole.
https://superuser.com/questions/430533/cygwin-zsh-home-and-end-keys-not-working fixed it for me.

Thanks a lot for the help!
