Description Kai Uwe Broulik 2021-08-22 17:43:12 UTC

SUMMARY
Whenever I log in I am now greeted by a Policy Kit prompt from Plasma disks asking permission to read SMART report for /dev/nvme0n1


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Log in

OBSERVED RESULT
Get a Policy Kit prompt for reading SMART report for /dev/nvme0n1

EXPECTED RESULT
No Policy Kit prompt

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: plasma disks git master as of 2021-07-27 because no newer package is available in neon dev unstable...

Comment 1 Kai Uwe Broulik 2021-08-22 17:47:20 UTC

Hmm, seems something more fundamental is broken in neon atm. Plasma discover also is also constantly prompting Policy kit for checking for available updates

Comment 2 tagwerk19 2021-08-22 18:24:36 UTC

Can confirm...

First appeared for me 2021/08/10 (thereabouts?). Think discover offline updates are affected, currently using pkcon

Seems to be cleared after

    sddm-0.19.0+p20.04+tunstable+git20210823.0857-0.amd64
        modern display manager for X11

and/or maybe

    polkit-kde-agent-1-4:5.22.4+p20.04+tunstable+git20210823.1305-0.amd64
        KDE dialogs for PolicyKit

Updated via pkcon. The prompts on logon or running discover have now gone. Thanks!
