            Bug ID: 359669
           Summary: If the configured font is not present, konsole show a
                    black window
           Product: konsole
           Version: 15.12.1
          Platform: Debian unstable
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: font
          Assignee: konsole-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: maxy at debian.org

I'm forwarding the Debian bug reported: https://bugs.debian.org/815559

If the font configured is missing konsole shows a $BACKGROUND colored window,
and stays in an almost non responsive mode till you change the font (by non
responsive I mean, it takes a long time for the menus to appear, or the
setttings window to change tabs).

It would be better if konsole could fallback to some other fonts, either using
the one configured as the applications wide monospace font, or simply trying
the "Monospace" font, or using any of the available fonts should be enough.

Happy hacking,

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install a new monospace font
2. Start konsole and configure it to use the newly installed font
3. Stop konsole
4. Deinstall the font
5. Start konsole again

Actual Results:  
A black screen is shown, konsole is almost non responsive

Expected Results:  
konsole starts with the default font, or fallbacks to any other available font.
