What is the version of your libssh?

Hi,

I have also this problem on Fedora 12. I think, it is from time I've upgraded from KDE 4.3 to KDE 4.4 (it works in KDE 4.3). 

My software:
libssh-0.4.2-1.fc12.i686
kdelibs-4.4.2-2.fc12.i686
kdebase-.4.2-1.fc12.i686                                                        kdebase-runtime-4.4.2-1.fc12.i686
Linux version 2.6.32.11-102.fc12.i686.PAE
Comment 3 hongcj92 2010-04-17 20:17:23 UTC 
libssh-4 0.4.2-1ubuntu1 (i386)

It works fine now. I did two things.
1)I found that there were some errors in my path configuration.
2)I delete a machine list in ~/.ssh.

Thanks,

Still no luck. I've made new user with clean profile and I'm still unable to use kio_sftp... ;(
Comment 5 Andreas Schneider 2010-04-18 09:10:22 UTC 
This has been fixed on Ubuntu see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libssh/+bug/562240

kdebase (runtime) on Fedora should be rebuilt with the new libssh version. Please file a bug report there.

Thanks!

Thanks Andreas! Rebuilding of kdebase-runtime fixed it.
