Package: konsole
Version: 4:3.5.4-2
Severity: normal

I use the "Digital CDE" color scheme in
the "Appearance & Themes > Colors" panel of the KDE
Control Center, and I use the "System Colors" schema
in konsole.  Then, fonts which are supposed to be bold
come out as non-bold and black.  Black is hard to read
on the dark blue background of the color scheme.
"man man" demonstrates the problem.

Thank you for your attention,
Ryo

I had indeed used "CDE" instead of "Digital CDE", so this will have
caused the confusion. Anyway, I'm marking this as fixed in 4:3.5.5a.dfsg.1-6
then.

I've had to use it on Irix. No wonder proprietary Unixes are dead
nowadays...
