Bug 274526 – [kde3, PATCH] Terminal Sessions applet does not handle SSH ports

• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Chris Bandy 2009-06-17 15:51:43 UTC]

The KDE bug describes the problem very well. The terminal sessions applet does not parse SSH URLs as well as Konsole does.

I've used this patch since 3.5.7 with complete success, but recently upstream has deemed kicker "unmaintained." Gentoo will have to host this fix/enhancement.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Setup a Konsole bookmark such as ssh://root@localhost:2222
2. Launch a "New Session at Bookmark" from applet


Actual Results:  
A new konsole window opens with "ssh -l root localhost"

Expected Results:  
A new konsole window should open with "ssh -p 2222 -l root localhost"

KDE3-only patch, closing as WONTFIX as KDE3 is about to be removed from portage.
