Description papoteur 2020-10-04 09:43:54 CEST
Description of problem:
Trying autocompletion in Konsole, I get:
Avertissement: Le programme /bin/bash s'est terminé d'une manière inattendue

Which means: Warning: program /bin/bash has terminated in unexpected manner.
Then, the tab is unusable.

How reproducible:
Open Konsole
In a directory where there is Mageia-Cauldron-netinstall-nonfree-x86_64.iso, type:
cp Ma
the <Tab> for the autocompletion.
See the crash.

Under LXDE, launching Konsole from the menu, in a directory with all the files from one ISO, I found this sort of thing was true - but Konsole did not crash, it simply ignored TAB for auto-completion.
Worse, running it a 2nd time from a command prompt in a different terminal, everything worked vis a vis TABbing for auto-completion...
This needs pinning down. I will re-try under Plasma.

Retrying, now, all is fine.
It seems that something was weird with this file. But what?

Hi, thanks reporting this.

Testing this:
Cauldron updated
Open Konsole in Plasma 5.19.5 (Konsole Version is 20.08.1 and KDE Frameworks 5.74.0 with Qt 5.15.1).

In a directory where there is Mageia-Cauldron-netinstall-nonfree-x86_64.iso
from http://ftp.free.fr/mirrors/mageia.org/distrib/cauldron/x86_64/install/images/

Mageia-Cauldron-netinstall-nonfree-x86_64.iso
last modified time is: 2020-Oct-03 03:43:04	size is: 106.0M

md5 hash is a52a782d3953a367feb279dd95663490 passing OK verification.

Typing:
$ cp Ma <Tab>

No crash at all.

Did file was completely downloaded before trying manipulating it in Konsole?

Since there are insufficient details provided in this report for us to investigate the issue further, and we have not received feedback to the information we have requested above, we will assume the problem was not reproducible.

Closing as OLD.
