--- Comment #9 from ioo+kde at posteo.net ---
So further testing, if I start Dolphin from the terminal- "dolphin" then I can
access my sftp:// remote share. It successfully reads ~/.ssh/config, finds the
entry, reads the IdentityFile directive, queries the ssh-agent for the key and
successfully opens the share. Note: dolphin does not open with any of the user
settings such as color scheme.
When the same sftp:// remote share is accessed from Dolphin which is run from
the plasma desktop (i.e. the icon) it erroneously prompts the user for a
passphrase. i.e. it does not recognize that an rsa key is being used. It does
however read the port from the ~/.ssh/config file so likely the problem is that
dolphin it is not able to access the ssh-agent when an sftp remote share is
being called.
Note: changing the share protocol to fish:// works as expected but sftp:// does
not work.
