--- Comment #7 from Anton <antkaid+bugs...@gmail.com> ---
Still present in Debian 12 with KDE Plasma 5.27.10.
While passwd only requires the user to know their own password to change it,
KDE for some reason requires the presence of the admin. This is at the same
time bad and surprising.
1) If possible, please address the "bad" part: remove the need for the user to
enter the admin's password in this use case;
2) If not, please address the "surprising" part:
2.1) State VERY explicitly in the PolicyKit1 KDE Agent window for the
"Standard" user that it's the admin's password that's required. Users keep
entering their passwords only to get auth failures, thinking they've made a
mistake, this creates a lot of frustration;
2.2) Admins creating "Standard" users don't know about this bug beforehand.
Please state this explicitly, as early as the user is created (at least, if
created through KDE).
