Bug ID: 476508
Summary: [kdesrc-build Plasma 6] Screen locker doesn't show the
password entry prompt
Classification: Plasma
Product: kscreenlocker
Version: git-master
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: putr...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I set up Plasma 6 with kdesrc-build following [1] and [2] alongside Plasma
5.27.9 from the Arch repos, and after entering the new Plasma 6 session via
SDDM I found that the lock screen doesn't let me unlock my session, so I have
to unlock the session via the `loginctl unlock-session` command instead.
In particular, the mouse cursor just flashes all the time in the lock screen,
and while hovering over where the password entry field would be does make the
cursor switch to the I shaped thing typing my password and pressing Enter still
doesn't let me through.
When the issue is occurring I see these two lines appear repeatedly in the
system logs, despite my system having neither fingerprint nor smartcard
authentication:
> kscreenlocker_greet[5762]: pam_warn(kde-fingerprint:auth):
> function=[pam_sm_authenticate] flags=0 service=[kde-fingerprint]
> terminal=[<unknown>] user=[m7] ruser=[<unknown>] rhost=[<unknown>]
> kscreenlocker_greet[5762]: pam_warn(kde-smartcard:auth):
> function=[pam_sm_authenticate] flags=0 service=[kde-smartcard]
> terminal=[<unknown>] user=[m7] ruser=[<unknown>] rhost=[<unknown>]
I'm not sure if this is expected due to Plasma 6 not being installed to the
system directly, like the issue with KAuth noted in [3], but if so having it
mentioned there would be great (unless it's noted somewhere else already and I
just missed it?).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Build Plasma 6 via kdesrc-build
2. Run the dev session via SDDM
3. Lock the screen
OBSERVED RESULT
It is impossible to unlock the screen via the GUI.
EXPECTED RESULT
The password field should appear to allow unlocking the screen.
