Severity: important

Hello,

upstream maintainer here. A user found a bug that IMHO should be fixed before
the upcoming 13/Trixie release. It affects all users creating a new backup
profile using SSH with a passphrase on their key-pair.

After clicking on OK in the "Manage profiles" dialog an error message is shown:
"Could not unlock ssh private key. Wrong password or password not available for
cron.". And on a terminal the message is "ERROR: Failed to unlock SSH private
key <key-file-path>".

The reporting user provided a solution. After investigating the issue and the
solution, I'll report back.

Regards,
Christian Buhtz
