Bug ID: 417615
Summary: Option to disable kdeconnect
Product: kdeconnect
Version: 1.4
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm
Assignee: albertv...@gmail.com
Reporter: tagwer...@innerjoin.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY:
Seems to be no way of disabling kdeconnect (so that the kdeconnectd process
is not running)
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
1. Look in "System Settings", "KDE Connect" for an option to disable the
service.
2. ... then try "System Settings", "Startup and Shutdown", "Background
Services"
EXPECTED RESULTS:
A "Enable KDE Connect" option that can be unchecked...
DESIRED RESULT:
An option that is not checked until you decide to...
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS:
System Settings 5.18.0
kdeconnect 1.4 (?)
from Neon Testing
KDE Plasma 5.18.0
KDE Frameworks 5.68.0
Qt 5.13.2
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
There's an option in System Settings "File Search" to enable or disable
search. Looking for an equivalent option for kdeconnect
Request triggered by a discussion that the "slow start for gwenview" might
be related to running kdeconnect (Bug 411196)
Looks like not all distributions have KDEconnect installed by default,
seemingly Fedora does not, Neon does. In the case that it is installed, there
should be an easily discoverable way of controlling it and maybe it should not
be active by default. There's the principle that if a service is not needed it
should not be running by default (all the more so when it has an open port)
