Jan Tojnar | In reply to @hpfr:matrix.org what do you all use for ssh askpass? I had it set to seahorse's version, but that pops up a keyboard shortcut warning that requires me to use the mouse. is there a more native option? weird, I have never seen that. Could you please open an issue? | 12:34:13 |

I had it set to seahorse's version, but that pops up a keyboard shortcut warning that requires me to use the mouse. is there a more native option? Never had that issue, but I never configured anything different from the default. I get a native GNOME popup asking for a password (probably polkit or seahorse). | 16:02:14 |
hpfr | schuelermine: can you send the output of echo $SSH_ASKPASS? | 20:29:36 |
Jan Tojnar | for GNOME, it should be this by default https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/b5f36e84d14a8ac695e306611340435ac448b7ed/nixos/modules/programs/seahorse.nix#L34 | 20:33:53 |
Jan Tojnar | but you will not see SSH_ASKPASS more than once if you store the password in the keychain | 20:34:51 |
hpfr | yeah, that's what I have. but I have keepassxc set up to prompt every time on key use, so I see it every time | 20:39:23 |
hpfr | * yeah, that's what I have. but I have keepassxc set up to prompt every key use, so I see it every time | 20:39:34 |
hpfr | * ok good, I'm on seahorse too. but I have keepassxc set up to prompt every key use, so I see it every time | 20:39:54 |
hpfr | I guess I will file the issue | 20:39:59 |
hpfr | so you don't see the inhibit shortcuts thing at all? oh you're on X right | 20:40:17 |
hpfr | it's probably not a nix issue then | 20:40:26 |
Jan Tojnar | yeah, let me check in wayland vm | 20:43:44 |
Jan Tojnar | yeah, can reproduce | 21:02:49 |
Jan Tojnar | that sounds like a GNOME Shell bug | 21:03:00 |
Jan Tojnar | hpfr: opened https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/5284 | 21:09:33 |
hpfr | thanks. but I'm wondering why this is even necessary for the askpass dialog | 22:14:24 |
hpfr | ideally there would be just the dialog, no shortcuts prompt | 22:14:38 |
hpfr | * thanks. but I'm also wondering why this is even necessary for the askpass dialog | 22:14:50 |
hpfr | or some way to allowlist the executable to always inhibit shortcuts | 22:15:20 |
Jan Tojnar | as I understand it, the point is not to inhibit shortcuts but to prevent other apps from accessing the input | 22:51:44 |
Jan Tojnar | (the inhibition is a side effect) | 22:52:20 |
Jan Tojnar | here is the grabbing code https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/seahorse/-/blob/38a82911f9c35617e96587e59f796e4616d62483/common/passphrase-prompt.vala#L193 | 22:57:15 |
hpfr | hmm, I thought wayland did that by default. either way, there should be a path to removing it, because it's pretty bad UX imo | 22:59:02 |

hpfr | yeah, makes sense. you must be on X as well | 08:58:11 |
schuelermine | I have the same problem on Wayland now | 10:07:29 |
schuelermine | Why does the prompt even look different? | 10:07:39 |
