Bug#1119976: konsole: Executing cat on binary file tries to open zmodem software

[Tobias Winchen <tobias@winchen.de>]

Package: konsole
Version: 4:25.04.2-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,

I (accidentally) used the cat command on a binary file. After some output, a new window opened
with an error message "No suitable ZModem software was found on this system.
You may wish to install the 'rzsz' or 'lrzsz' package."

It appears that konsole attempted to execute an additional program, which is
not expected behavior. I only expect the file to be displayed in the
konsole window without any interpretation.

The binary file in question can be found here:
https://gitlab.mpcdf.mpg.de/mpifr-bdg/mpikat/-/blob/dev/mpikat/pipelines/alveo_firmwares/a_pfb_u280_x64_dual_8b12b.xclbin?ref_type=heads

I initially used zsh, but I tried the same command in konsole using bash,
showing the same behavior. I also tried the command in xterm., which did not
show any unexpected behavior.
