Bug ID: 521503
Summary: shareinputdevices: InputCapture portal session not
persisted — dialog repeats every session
Classification: Applications
Product: kdeconnect
Version First 26.04.2
Reported In:
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: desktop-application
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
Every session, KDE Connect shows "Input Capture Requested" dialog
requiring manual confirmation. No "Remember this decision" checkbox appears.
Root cause (analyzed on system):
- kdeconnect_shareinputdevices.so calls org.freedesktop.portal.InputCapture
without persist_mode or restore_token
- xdg-desktop-portal InputCapture frontend does not use PermissionStore
- By contrast, kdeconnect_mousepad.so uses RemoteDesktop portal WITH
persist_mode + restore_token → works persistently there
Expected: Decision persisted across sessions
Actual: Dialog appears every session, no way to permanently allow
Environment: CachyOS Linux, KDE Plasma (Wayland), xdg-desktop-portal-kde 6.6.5
