DetailsDescription:
If installing openssh-askpass along with openssh, the latter is not configured to run the former. File /etc/profile.d/openssh-askpass.sh contains a wrong path: /usr/lib/openssh/qt4-ssh-askpass The executable is called placed into /usr/bin instead. Additional info: * package version: openssh-askpass-2.0.0-1 * possible fix: # ln -s /usr/bin/qt4-ssh-askpass /usr/lib/ssh/qt4-ssh-askpass Replace openssh with ssh in /etc/profile.d/openssh-askpass.sh Steps to reproduce: pacman -Rs openssh (and dependencies) pacman -S openssh openssh-askpass (and dependencies) try to use a GUI program that relies on ssh authentication, e.g. virt-manager and you will get an error like: Unable to connect to libvirt. You need to install openssh-askpass or similar to connect to this host. Why I think it's important to fix this problem: some people may want to replace x11-ssh-askpass with openssh-askpass because the former does not offer any way to paste a password from the clipboard. This feature is needed if someone uses keepassx, password gorilla or similar password safe managers. |
