            Bug ID: 470214
           Summary: Exception messages
    Classification: Applications
           Product: kdeconnect
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: unspecified
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: plasmoid
          Assignee: albertv...@gmail.com
          Reporter: mgu...@tiscali.it
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
***
Just a quick suggestion to avoid to go crazy with 3rd parts libraries... I had
a problem with openSSL (which I didn't know) that causes kdeconnect not to read
or create the certificates. The error message from kdeconnectd at startup was:
"Failed to load Legacy provider". It was ununderstandable (at least for me)
what was the problem. I had to download the source code and debug it to
understand that the problem was on openSSL.
Maybe a better management of the exceptions and exceptions messagges could be
useful in the portion of codes that use 3rd parties libraries. 
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. delete (or invalidate) your ssl config file
2. try to launch kdeconnectd

OBSERVED RESULT


EXPECTED RESULT
Failed to load Legacy provider

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: slackware current (but ubuntu current too)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.106.0

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Just a suggestion for the future, nothing more. Thank you for your great job!
