[authentication]: systray shows notification popup then immediatly closes it

[star-buck]

Example: install synaptic and open it (will do a screencast shortly). The authentication popup window comes up and systray pops up a notification, which closes immediatly and therefore is unreadable. I suggest to not have an additional notification popup (i cant remember that opening synaptic had triggered a notification before).

Here is a still of the screencast shwoing policykit1-kde Its quite annyoing, redundant in that case and has no real benefit: https://www.dropbox.com/s/68cexzuy1v3iq1w/synaptic-notification-popup.mkv?dl=0

anything to fix this?

[davidedmundson]

Applying this will fix it. https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/123294/

It didnt go in because Martin G was aruging over a thing. I'll persuade him I'm right and get it into 5.3.1

[star-buck]

if we can apply this fix, its fine, enought time then for a proper fix for p5.3.1 or later.

seems fixed.

this is still not fixed in 5.3.2: it gets worse as it interferes with the "&&" parameter, example in Arch:

• sudo systemctl start smbd && systemctl start nmbd

this asks for sudo-password in konsole and then immediatly pops up the plasma window to ask for another confirmation without closing it, while in konsole it repots already "Access Denied" for the second call. If you execute both orders subsequently, everything goes fine. Lets please kill that annyoing popup for good.

Merged into 5.4 proper

seems fixed
