Bug#860753: konsole: 'screen' can not use the konsole scrollback buffer

[Delian Krustev <krustev@krustev.net>]

Package: konsole
Version: 4:16.12.0-1
Severity: normal

'screen' is supposed to use the konsole scrollback buffer when /etc/screenrc (or ~/.screenrc) is updated with:

  termcapinfo xterm|xterms|xs|rxvt ti@:te@

It has been working for me on all hosts until this Stretch install.
I've tested it with 'xterm' and it works fine with it.

Or maybe I am missing a newly introduced konsole config option ?
