           Summary: Konsole running irssi does not close properly
           Product: konsole
           Version: 2.4.2
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: crash
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: scgtrp at gmail.com


Version:           2.4.2 (using KDE 4.4.2) 
OS:                Linux

A konsole with a custom profile using irssi as the shell does not close
correctly, causing all other konsoles running to hang.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
- Create a Konsole profile using /usr/bin/irssi as the command.
- Run konsole --profile IRC and close it.
- Observe hanging.
- alt-f2 killall -9 irssi (or alt-f2 killall -9 konsole) is the only way I've
found to regain the ability to use Konsoles without logging out completely.

Actual Results:  
Any currently open Konsole instances hang, and it becomes impossible to open
new ones as they also hang before even displaying a window.

Expected Results:  
Less hanging.

I am currently running Ubuntu amd64, but I have also observed this bug on an
Arch Linux amd64 system with KDE 4.5.1.

The same effect can be caused by closing a Konsole using the default profile
after running 'exec irssi' in it; maybe this is something related to not having
a shell running in it?
