Description Linus Kardell 2019-01-09 07:42:26 UTC 
SUMMARY
If you set multiple IdentityFile settings for a host in ~/.ssh/config, the sftp KIO slave only tries the first one, and falls back to password if it doesn't work. This differs from the command line sftp client, and SSH, which tries all keys.

Please file a bug against libssh. KIO is actually not in charge of the config handling.
