Public bug reported: It would be very useful if ksshaskpass is set as the default askpass once it is installed.
SSH_ASKPASS=/usr/bin/ksshaspass Distributions like Fedora KDE supply a file for example /etc/xdg/plasma- workspace/env/ksshaskpass.sh ksshaskpass.sh contains SSH_ASKPASS=/usr/bin/ksshaskpass export SSH_ASKPASS This ensures that when password is requested from a terminal it will be asked through ksshaskpass. https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/ksshaskpass/contents/# ** Affects: ksshaskpass (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Attachment added: "ksshaskpass.sh file from fedora" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1442862/+attachment/4372190/+files/ksshaskpass.sh -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1442862 Title: Set ksshaskpass as SSH_ASKPASS env variable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ksshaskpass/+bug/1442862/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
