Bug ID: 467098
Summary: Allow user to mount LUKS drives without sudo
permission
Classification: I don't know
Product: kde
Version: unspecified
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
KDE allows storing LUKS passwords in Kwallet. Its the users wallet with the
users password. But when trying to mount a LUKS drive, you need sudo
permissions, which makes no sense.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Attach a USB LUKS drive
2. Enter the password, let it store in KWallet
3. unmount the LUKS drive, mount again
OBSERVED RESULT
You need to press "Enter" to confirm the password, and you need the sudo
password.
EXPECTED RESULT
Password prompt opens where you have to only press enter. This should be
removed and used only when the password is wrong. Also you need the sudo
password to mount the drive.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Fedora Linux 37 (Kinoite, OSTree)

KDE Frameworks Version: 5.103.0
Qt Version: 5.15.8
Kernel Version: 6.1.14-200.fc37.x86_64 (64-bit)
PROPOSED SOLUTION
add something like that:
bash
echo "$USER ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/mount" | sudo tee -a
/etc/sudoers.d/mount
