Public bug reported: The "konsole" application seems to be in very bad shape in yakkety. Possibly, this is not due to the konsole itself but the qt/plasma5/plasma framework combination. Unfortunately, plasma 5 does not seem to be able to stabilize.
To reproduce: from a terminal type in "konsole" exit the konsole with the (X) button either: - the konsole crashes (typically with a message about a corrupted double linked list) or - the konsole seems to quit fine, but in fact it does not. CPU usage goes up to 100% and top reveal a konsole process causing it. This process does not seem to be related to any window that is still active. Killing the process puts cpu usage back to normal. Given the importance of terminal applications, please give this bug appropriate attention.
