** Description changed:
- I'm reporting this bug upstream from where I found it, since I've
- learned that the signond package in KDE Neon is sourced from Ubuntu
- focal.
+ [Impact]
+
+ Without the patch users are unable to add google accounts because signond
crashes.
+ This prevents users from using KDE's online accounts feature for google.
+ The fix for this is to drop the no-rtti compile flag as qprocess relies on
type info. This has no real downside for the user as it simply brings in type
info.
+
+ [Test Case]
+
+ - in a plasma session
+ - install kio-gdrive
+ - run `systemsettings5 kcm_kaccounts`
+ - add a new account
+ - click on google
+ - wait for login window to appear
+ - signond shouldn't be crashing
+
+ [Where problems could occur]
+
+ Cannot think of any. It simply adds type info to the objects. Also
+ upstream has rtti disabled for months and I'm not aware of any problems.
+
+ [Other Info]
+
+ This is a fairly grave issue as far as user experience is concerned.
+
+
+ ----
+
+
+ I'm reporting this bug upstream from where I found it, since I've learned
that the signond package in KDE Neon is sourced from Ubuntu focal.
This was found in signon (signond_8.59+17.10.20170606-0ubuntu2_amd64)
from Focal Fossa
Steps to reproduce:
1. Install KDE Plasma and qt 5.15.0 on Ubuntu focal base (IE: KDE Neon)
2. Install the kaccounts integration and kio-gdrive packages.
3. Open System settings and navigate to "Online Accounts"
4. Press "+ Add New Account"
5. Select "Google"
Observed behaviour:
- Window that would ask for authentication fails to load, and Online Accounts
goes back to overview
- system logs show a segfault in libqt5core.so which can be traced to a
failure in qporcess, casued by signond (see links for further details)
- Expected behaviour:
+ Expected behaviour:
- New window opens with a webview where Google authentication credentials can
be posted.
- When qprocess runs it does not crash.
