Created attachment 165555 [details]
show terminal (shift+f4) pressed twice, adds two windows. a 3rd time adds another etc

SUMMARY
after dup from OpenSuSE 15.4 to 15.5.
opens a panel, window as it always has, but there is nothing in it.
No prompt, can't make it go away, if i type exit (which does not show up anywhere) konqueror closes


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. enable shortcut shift+f4 show terminal or menu > settings > show terminal emulator
2. konqueror splits hoz, adds black window
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
opens a panel, window as it always has, but there is nothing in it.
No prompt, can't make it go away, if i type exit (which does not show up anywhere) konqueror closes
each time i press shift+f4 or systemsettings show terminal the bottom window, fram will divide and add another 'terminal' blank box.


EXPECTED RESULT
terminal kshellcmdplugin show appear and I should be able to type 'exit' to close it
like i've been able to do thru leat 15.4

It seems the same bug like Bug 479119.
Comment 2 Stefano Crocco 2024-02-20 19:53:48 UTC
Which Konqueror version are you using? It works correctly for me with Konqueror 23.08.5.
Comment 3 Willi Tor 2024-02-21 16:22:58 UTC
Please, see Bug 479119.
Comment 4 Stefano Crocco 2024-02-21 18:23:16 UTC
That version is quite old and I have no way to test it. However, from your description, I think it has indeed been fixed in 23.08. The problem was that konsole didn't install its part where parts are supposed to be. A workaround you can apply until  you can upgrade to a more recent version of Konqueror is to symlink the konsolepart.so (usually located in /usr/lib64/qt5/plugins) to /usr/lib64/qt5/plugins/kf5/parts (if your distribution put konsolepart.so in another directory, then the symlink should go to the kf5/parts subdirectory of the directory containing konsolepart.so).
Comment 5 Stefano Crocco 2024-02-21 18:38:13 UTC
If the workaround solves your problem, you could create a bug report for your distribution, asking to backport the fix. This is the link to the commit which fixes the issue: https://invent.kde.org/network/konqueror/-/commit/355437048df407d41cd39fdd72205dfd2e972e42

Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately, it doesn't work, neither on Debian nor on the Raspberry Pi. It's not empty windows that open, just something completely different. It seems like a completely pointless link. It may work on SuSE.

It's only Debian, but I like it.
