If you want to use tkPacman with Konsole as virtual terminal, you will have to change the tkPacman option "terminal" from
konsole -nofork -p tabtitle=%t -e %c
to
konsole --title %t -e %c
If I have to update tkPacman for some reason, I will also correct the command template for Konsole.

@YAOMTC:
I have a Plasma installation now and I can confirm the issue.
I have found the cause of the problem too. It is the "-p tabtitle=%t" in the tkPacman option "terminal".
In the tkpacman option "terminal" just replace
konsole -nofork -p tabtitle=%t -e %c
with
konsole --title %t -e %c
The "-nofork" option was not offending, but does not seem necessary anymore, so you can leave that out also.

Thanks, qterminal lacks the issue. It must be something with Konsole specifically, or between tkPacman and Plasma/Konsole.

@YAOMTC: I don't know what causes the problem. At the moment I don't have a Plasma installation at hand. Personally, I am using xfce4-terminal on Xfce. That works without problems. I will look into Plasma and Konsole, but that may take some time because I have to install Plasma. Meanwhile you could try to use qterminal instead of konsole. That works alright on my Xfce installation.

I've noticed that at some point recently, when I hit Enter to close the terminal (on Plasma/KWin), DrKonqi thinks that Konsole ended unexpectedly, and at this point tkPacman freezes up temporarily. Is this more likely an issue with tkPacman or with Plasma?

Minor upgrade of tkpacman to version 1.9.1. The filter in the file selection box called from "Install package from local file" has been modified from ".pkg.tar.xz" to ".pkg.tar.*". As a result, both packages with file extensions ".pkg.tar.xz" and ".pkg.tar.zst" are shown in the file selection box.

Problem solved with latest versions of TCL and TK. Took some time....

Thanks for the responses, Guys. I'll try dropping back to Tcl/Tk version 8.6.8-3 till the bug gets fixed.

@nfs Apparently a bug report has already been issued against Tk: http://core.tcl.tk/tk/tktview?name=509cafafae .

So, I will just wait to see if it gets fixed in the future.

@nfs It is very likely a problem in Tcl/Tk. I have downgraded Tcl/Tk to version 8.6.8-3 on my Arch system. Then the installed packages are coloured green again.

I will try to report it as a bug to Tk, but that will take some time.

@nfs Thank you for notifying me. I hadn't noticed myself. I don't know yet what causes it.
