Description Tad 2024-10-20 17:04:08 UTC
I noticed this when virt-manager kept trying to invoke ksshaskpass instead of openssh-askpass as previously on f40 because /etc/profile.d/kde-openssh-askpass.sh exists and overrides it

/etc/profile.d/kde-openssh-askpass.sh should only be available in the ksshaskpass package

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. connect to a remote libvirt instance via ssh that should prompt interactive keyboard usage
Actual Results:  
it fails and only tries to open ksshaskpass, the KDE one even though I'm on GNOME and virt-manager is GTK and ksshaskpass isn't installed

Expected Results:  
have it run the correct askpass helper to input response

using version virt-manager-4.1.0-9.fc41.src.rpm

this worked previously on f37/f38/f39/f40

On my GNOME system, kde-settings is installed because kf5-kconfig-core depends on it and LibreOffice indirectly depends on kf5-kconfig-core.

Comment 2 Olivier Samyn 2025-06-02 09:30:53 UTC
Same problem here on F42.
/etc/profile.d/kde-openssh-askpass.sh should probably be part of the ksshaskpass package instead of kde-settings.

This package has changed maintainer in Fedora. Reassigning to the new maintainer of this component.

Comment 4 Adam Williamson 2025-12-02 01:22:49 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora Linux 41 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora Linux 41 on 2025-12-15.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a
'version' of '41'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora Linux version. Note that the version field may be hidden.
Click the "Show advanced fields" button if you do not see it.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora Linux 41 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora Linux, you are encouraged to change the 'version' to a later version
prior to this bug being closed.
