SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect to a sftp share in dolphin
2. Open pdf file in Okular Flatpak
3. Error Unknown "sftp" protocol

OBSERVED RESULT

Impossible d'ouvrir « sftp://maledict@192.168.1.30/home/maledict/Drive/Cours/Licence/Info3/SR1/Cours/01-Intro-SE-Unix-C.pdf ». Raison : Impossible de créer un module d'entrée / sortie. Protocole « sftp » inconnu.
Translation : 
Unable to open "sftp://maledict@192.168.1.30/home/maledict/Drive/Cours/Licence/Info3/SR1/Cours/01-Intro-SE-Unix-C.pdf". Reason: Unable to create an input/output module. Unknown protocol "sftp".

EXPECTED RESULT
File should open, just like on the native Okular package.

Comment 1 Villemur Clément 2025-09-13 22:00:43 UTC

The bug is also present in Nightly KDE Flatpak Okular.

Comment 2 Sune Vuorela 2025-09-15 10:36:05 UTC

KIO-extras in the flatpak is built without libssh / SFTP support, so reassigning there.
