Konsole Pkcon bug

Thu Aug 26, 2021 12:24 pm
This is a visual bug that I keep experiencing when using the pkcon command.
The progress bar doesn't start from from the end of texts and starts overwriting the texts on the screen.
These images should help describe the bug:

This issue persisted after a system-reinstall so I believe it is not unique to me. Could others confirm this?
Also is there a better way to contact the developers regarding this bug?

Same here. Very unpleasant visual bug. Not only in Konsole, also in TTY.

Try: pkcon -p [COMMAND]

-p, --plain
Print to screen a machine-readable output, rather than using animated widgets.

Hello,

This issue is a visually nasty bug. There is no problem in terms of functionality.

It is not a bug, but a feature ;)
You can change the Konsole default profile and set the scrolling to full page.
Then save the new profile and set it as default.

I've just done that and it doesn't seem to have worked:

Can others confirm/deny this?

This problem seems to exist in pkcon. Because; There is no such problem with apt, pacman or rpm.
