Details

Please add x11-ssh-askpass as optional dependency for remote disk management. Without an ssh-askpass, palimpsest show the following messages when I try to connect to a remote computer:

ssh_askpass: exec(/usr/lib/ssh/ssh-askpass): No such file or directory
Permission denied, please try again.
ssh_askpass: exec(/usr/lib/ssh/ssh-askpass): No such file or directory
Permission denied, please try again.
ssh_askpass: exec(/usr/lib/ssh/ssh-askpass): No such file or directory
Permission denied (publickey,password).

See also  FS#26354  about seahorse, which could provide an ssh-askpass.

I don't think this is a problem of gnome-disk-utility. The string "askpass" isn't anywhere in the package. What is trying to launch ssh-askpass?

  • Field changed: Summary ([gnome-disk-utility] Missing optional dependency: x11-ssh-askpass → [openssh] Missing optional dependency: x11-ssh-askpass)
  • Field changed: Category (Packages: Extra → Packages: Core)
  • Task reassigned to Aaron Griffin (phrakture), Gaetan Bisson (vesath)
It's openssh itself doing this. Reassigning the bug.

I'll add SSH_ASKPASS and provides=(x11-ssh-askpass) to seahorse.
