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

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!
