           Summary: konsole re-execs command if run with "-e
                    /some/command"
           Product: konsole
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: mdb at cs.unm.edu


Version:            (using KDE 4.2.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

This was originally posted downstream here: https://bugzilla.novell.com/477952

Basically, unlike KDE 3.5's konsole (or any other tabbing console), the konsole
in KDE 4.X (4.2 tested, up-to-date as of today from the above repo), re-runs
the "-e" command with each new tab.  What's worse, if that command exits the
konsole then behaves strangely. It should not do either of these things.

How to reproduce:

Make a new "link to application". 
The command (application tab) should be ssh localhost (for example). 
Under Advanced Options (Application tab again), click "run in terminal". 

If you then run this application (click it), it will try to ssh localhost as
expected. 

Now, try to make a new tab. The new tab *also* tries to ssh localhost. 
If you are using KDE 3.5 at the time it will NOT but KDE 4.2 *will*.
