Summary: no way to enter apper password
Product: Active
Version: unspecified
Platform: Unlisted Binaries
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Top Bar
AssignedTo: active@kde.org
ReportedBy: carlsymons@gmail.com
Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.7.3)
OS: Linux
Apper icon appeared in topbar. Clicking button to apply updates brings up
authorization prompt. Touching in the text box to enter does not launch
keyboard. This makes Apper work as an update notifier, but useless as a full
update tool.
Reproducible: Didn't try
Steps to Reproduce:
apper appeared in Plasma Active top bar and reported that updates were
available. When apper updates didn't work, zypper dup.
Actual Results:
apper called for password. Unable to provide it without onscreen keyboard.
Didn't make sense to hook up external keyboard. Terminal updates worked fine.
Expected Results:
Apper authorization would launch keyboard
I think that Terminal + zypper dup isn't the best way for most people to do
updates. Apper is a good idea for the less technical user. It should work all
the way through to completion.
