Bug ID: 441328
Summary: Manual proxy not working with authentication.
Product: systemsettings
Version: unspecified
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_proxy
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
Authenticated proxys (name:password@proxy) dont save in proxy settings and will
have the username:password string removed and just leave the proxy address. I
dont know how plasma currently handles proxys but I am currently using gnome
which applys proxy settings as an env variable. Plasma proxy even when it works
doesnt affect env variables and I think that it would be a good idea to since a
lot of applications support it and its useful in terminal. I think this is
quite a big issue since it can cause a lot of issues in workplaces that require
proxys for network access.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open plasma proxy settings
2. Select manual
3. Input a authenticated proxy (username:password@proxy)
OBSERVED RESULT
Proxy will save but once clicked out and gone back into proxy settings it
resets to (proxy) instead of (username:password@proxy)
When using an application such as discover it once again proves the
authentication is ignored and just shows (proxy) normally being unreachable
since the proxy requires authentication.
EXPECTED RESULT
Authenticated proxys to be accepted and also applied to enviromnet variables to
use with terminal or other applications that support enviroment variable
arguments.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

macOS:
Linux/KDE Plasma:

KDE Plasma Version:

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
There seems to be another bug with proxys not saving after being saved and
being wiped when moving between setting windows. Ill create another bug report
for this if it doesnt exist.
