If changing NTP settings requires authentication on your setup and you cancel the password dialog then this message is correct. Can you confirm what you expect to happen? It's unnecessary to show a message after canceling a password dialog confirming that a change was not applied. This is obvious. Another thing is that after canceling the password dialog we can change "Set date and time automatically" without entering a password.

If i cancel the dialog and try to change the settings it asks for the password, so it seems fine This is a real issue; canceling a password dialog shouldn't show an error message. *** Bug 501979 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** A possibly relevant merge request was started @ https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-desktop/-/merge_requests/3214 |
