--- Comment #30 from Antonio Russo <aerusso at aerusso.net> ---
Hello Stefan!  konsole is actually very easy to build, as long as you have all
the dependencies (and there's the rub).  If you're on a Debian testing, you
*can* easily get them with

sudo apt-get build-dep konsole

(I'm sure there are similar mechanisms on other distributions, I just don't
know them).
However: older releases may not have sufficiently up-to-date dependencies.  You
can move forward here, you'll just run into errors later on.  You definitely
need cmake 3.13, QT 5.12, and KF5 frameworks 5.68 (or later).

# Get the source

git clone https://invent.kde.org/aerusso/konsole.git -b
pulls/revert-no-intense-color
cd konsole

At this point, I will tell you to do whatever due diligence you feel is
appropriate to validate that what you've downloaded is safe.

# Next, configure the source:

cmake .

If you run into errors here, you will need to read them and figure out what
else needs to be installed.  

# Compile the code!

Here, -j8 tells make to use 8 threads, making it compile ~8x faster (if you
have that many cores).

make -j8

# Run it:

./bin/konsole

# Bugs that are not related to my change:

There's a new toolbar that I cannot figure out how to disable.  It also might
not go away when you go back to your old version of konsole (!!!).  To get rid
of it, find any konsoleui.rc files (probably in
~/.local/share/konsole/konsoleui.rc or
~/.local/share/kxmlgui5/konsole/konsoleui.rc), and delete them.

# What to find:

Edit current profile -> Appearance -> Color scheme & font -> Use bright color
for intense text

Un-select that, and apply the change.
