Demonstration screenshot for `#c0`.
SUMMARY
-------
The "Firmware Security" KCM, accessible via KInfoCenter, returns search results
in a single line, rendering them nigh unreadable.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
------------------
1. Invoke `kcm_firmware_security` (whether via `kcmshell6` or `kinfocenter`):
- ~~~sh
#!/usr/bin/env sh
kcmshell6 kcm_firmware_security
~~~
- ~~~sh
#!/usr/bin/env sh
kinfocenter kcm_firmware_security
~~~
Just don't use `systemsettings kcm_firmware_security`. That doesn't work,
and I can't be bothered to report a bug for it RN.
2. Search for "a" (or "ab", etcetera - I've solely listed those which I've
tested).
OBSERVED RESULT
---------------
Each result is concatenated into a single line:
> ~~~YAML

EXPECTED RESULT
---------------
Each result should be returned on a new line. I've manually converted the
aforementioned quotation into the undermentioned example, so it may not be 100%
correct, but demonstrates the difference:
~~~YAML
HSI:2! (v1.9.27) HSI-1
✔ BIOS firmware updates: Enabled
✔ Fused platform: Locked
✔ Supported CPU: Valid
✔ TPM empty PCRs: Valid
✔ TPM v2.0: Found
✔ UEFI bootservice variables: Locked HSI-2
✔ SPI write protection: Enabled
✔ IOMMU: Enabled
✔ Platform debugging: Locked
✔ TPM PCR0 reconstruction: Valid HSI-3
✔ CET Platform: Supported
✘ SPI replay protection: Not supported
✘ Pre-boot DMA protection: Disabled
✘ Suspend-to-idle: Disabled
✘ Suspend-to-ram: Enabled HSI-4
✔ SMAP: Enabled
✘ Processor rollback protection: Disabled
✘ Encrypted RAM: Not supported Runtime Suffix -!
✔ fwupd plug-ins: Untainted
✔ CET OS Support: Supported
✔ Linux swap: Encrypted
✔ Linux kernel: Untainted
✘ Linux kernel lockdown: Disabled
✘ UEFI secure boot: Disabled
