Bug ID: 492251
Summary: Screen share permission under Wayland are not
remembered across reboots
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 6.1.4
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: wayland-generic
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: phoenix_8...@hotmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Under Wayland, applications requesting permission to share screen show the
screen choice window at every reboot, even if the option that specifies to
preserve the session in the future is selected.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Boot Plasma 6 in a Wayland session
2. Run any application requesting to access the screen (e.g., I am using Rust
Desk)
3. Choose the desired screen and specify you want to remember the choice.
4. Reboot and run the application again, and try sharing the screen again.
OBSERVED RESULT
The application asks again permission to share the screen.
EXPECTED RESULT
The previous choice should be remembered.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.5.0
Qt Version: 6.7.2
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This is very bad, because it makes unattended access to the machine with tools
like Team Viewer and Rust Desk useless. What is the point of using these
applications if one has to be physically able to confirm the screen permissions
every time?
This bug has been present since Plasma 6 was released.
