Flatpaked VSCode 1.80.1 cannot sync #417

Open bitestring opened 1 year ago

bitestring commented 1 year ago

Since the update to VSCode 1.80.x, it can no longer remember credentials for syncing. I have to sign in everytime I open VSCode.

Host: Fedora Worstation 38 Desktop: GNOME 44 VSCode: 1.80.1 (Flathub)

Seconding this, it seems to be due to a change in how VS Code deals with keychains:

NOTE: This section applies to VS Code version 1.80 and higher. In 1.80, we moved away from keytar, due to its archival, in favor of Electron's safeStorage API. -- https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/settings-sync#_troubleshooting-keychain-issues

Same here, is it possible to work around this issue?

Just to confirm here, it's really annoying to sign in every time you restart the IDE.

@mscharley I performed the logging:

[main 2023-08-04T08:05:45.566Z] Going to get password from keytar: vscode.login account
[main 2023-08-04T08:05:45.566Z] Doing get password from keytar: vscode.login account
[main 2023-08-04T08:05:45.566Z] Did not get a password from keytar for account: account

I see even more things, like this

[23:0804/100545.865489:VERBOSE1:os_crypt_linux.cc(207)] Decryption failed
 Error: Error while decrypting the ciphertext provided to safeStorage.decryptString.", source: vscode-file://vscode-app/app/extra/vscode/resources/app/out/vs/workbench/workbench.desktop.main.js

It later seems to delete the current key, and generate a new one.

Looks completely broken to me.

See https://github.com/flathub/com.visualstudio.code/issues/415 (possible duplicate)

The following workaround works for me: https://github.com/flathub/com.vscodium.codium/issues/239

However it's not safe, as @Dryadxon already explained. :/
