The 'konsole' package provides x-terminal-emulator (as seen from 'apt-cache show konsole' or in the 'control' file of the package)

But the package lacks the necessary postinst script that calls 'update-alternatives'.

This results in failure of graphical log when you select "failsafe" as session in kdm on a kubuntu system. Because it can't find 'x-terminal-emulator'.
