Description vvedomil 2022-10-07 07:54:52 UTC
SUMMARY
SSHFS is orphaned, and the developer stopped working on it. Kdeconnect uses SSHFS for access storage to devices - Android, Linux, etc. 
Everything works now, but who knows how long it will be fine. 
Source: https://github.com/libfuse/sshfs#this-project-is-orphaned


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
Not related

OBSERVED RESULT
kdeconnect can be broken in the future if no one cares that SSHFS is orphaned. In time security will be more critical - anyway, it's the issue of all orphaned projects.

EXPECTED RESULT
Kdeconnect needs to switch to an alternative solution, or the KDE team should take over the work on the SSHFS.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Related to all platforms
