Subject: Bug#2585: Find command with multiple pipes fails in KDE Konsole
X-MARC-Message: https://marc.info/?l=kde-bugs-dist&m=94920418927578

I use the following command to list all the directories in the current
directory. If I run the command in console mode, it works fine. But if I
run the same command in KDE Konsole, in the same directory, it returns
nothing. I know there *are*
directories present (from console mode). The command I give is:

find -maxdepth 1 -type d | sort -k8 | less -E -c

KDE Konsole returns nothing, but the prompt. In console mode, the same
command returns a sorted list of directories found.

However, if I shorten the command to

find -maxdepth 1 -type d | sort -k8 

it works fine in both KDE Konsole and console.
