Description Fisher 2022-04-08 19:19:34 UTC 
SUMMARY
When I start the terminal, `~/.zprofile` is not properly sourced. This results in my PATH not being set properly.

I believe this results from the terminal starting `/bin/zsh` manually instead using a login shell. 

On macOS, terminals must always [use the login shell for profile files to be read](https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/119675/498032).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Kate on macOS
2. Open Terminal Pane

OBSERVED RESULT
Shell profile file not properly sourced

EXPECTED RESULT
Shell profile file sourced

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
macOS: 11.6

I would assume this is rather an issue of Konsole itself.

Ah, that makes sense. I didn't realize Konsole was also available for macOS.

Looks like iTerm2 solves this by calling `login -f`.
