Bug ID: 476795
Summary: Cannot reliably mount KeeShare container from an SMB
mount pulled in via KIO
Classification: Frameworks and Libraries
Product: frameworks-kio
Version: 5.110.0
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: general

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I'm using KeePassXC and would like to include a shared database [1] from an SMB
mount accessed via KIO. This works fine as long as I don't reboot. However,
with each reboot, the link to the mounted file changes. It looks like this:
/run/user/1000/doc/56b810f0/my-share.kdbx.share
The problem is that the '56b810f0' bit in the middle is different on every
boot.
Is there a way to get a deterministic path here? I've looked at kioclient to
maybe automate this with a Systemd user unit, but it doesn't appear to have a
mount command available.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set up a KeeShare container in KeePassXC
2. Save it to a Samba share (or any other KIO-managed remote, presumably)
3. Observe the mount address KeePassXC uses (the text in the green bar)
OBSERVED RESULT
The mount address looks like this:
/run/user/1000/doc/56b810f0/my-share.kdbx.share
With the '56b810f0' bit in the middle being different on every boot.
EXPECTED RESULT
The mount address is deterministic and works across reboots.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora Kinoite 38
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.8
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.110.0
Qt Version: 5.15.11
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I've looked into working around this myself via kioclient and a systemd unit,
but kioclient doesn't appear to have a 'mount' command or similar.
