That was the config it generated (with some quality of life changes like font
size) after I moved the konsolerc. I have since installed arch linux (so I
should be on the latest or nearly the latest versions) alongside kubuntu. They
share the home directory, but just now I booted into arch, moved the entire
.config to oldconfig (to avoid any corrupt or incompatible configs between
kubuntu and arch versions) rebooted back into arch. I seem to be able to
trigger the bug a little more reliably on arch. I haven't tried the below
method on kubuntu yet.

Here's how I am triggering the bug on arch:
1. delete/move konsolerc (It is unclear if this is necessary)
2. Start konsole.
3. Set the initial terminal size in your default profile to be too short to fit
your MOTD and the bash prompt.
4. Start a new konsole window. It will be cutting off the MOTD because it is
too short.
5. Resize that new konsole window so it is tall enough to display the MOTD and
the prompt.
6. Scroll up so you see your MOTD and the prompt.
7. Type something.

Expected result: It does not scroll and continues to show both MOTD and the
bash prompt

Actual result: It scrolls back up cutting off the MOTD in the same spot as
before the resize in step 5.

On kubuntu, I don't think I needed to go through all those steps to do step 3
to get it to trigger, but I think it may still be the same bug.
