            Bug ID: 507306
           Summary: ???? KDE Bug Report for Konsole SSH Plugin Not
                    Responding After Update
    Classification: Applications
           Product: konsole
      Version First 25.04.3
       Reported In:
          Platform: KDE Linux
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: sshmanager
          Assignee: konsole-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: autyan at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

Product: Konsole
Component: general (or sshmanager plugin if available)
Version: 25.04.3
Platform: Fedora 42 (KDE Plasma, Wayland)
Severity: Major
Priority: NOR
Summary: SSH plugin double-click fails after Konsole update to 25.04.3, related
to Wayland and layout error
📝 Description:

After updating Konsole to version 25.04.3-1.fc42, the built-in SSH plugin
stopped responding to double-click actions for launching connections.

Originally, the SSH plugin worked fine. After a few failed connection attempts
due to misconfigured SSH keys, the entries became unresponsive to double-click.
Even after fixing the SSH config and restarting Konsole, double-click does not
work anymore — it no longer triggers any SSH session launch.

Interestingly, if I add a new SSH config entry, then delete it, the first
Konsole tab created at startup can briefly respond to double-click again — but
this workaround is inconsistent and unreliable.

This issue only began after the Konsole update. No other system-level changes
were made. It appears related to Wayland popups and Qt layout errors.
🧪 Steps to Reproduce:

    Open Konsole 25.04.3 under Wayland on Fedora 42 KDE

    Use the SSH Manager plugin (enable via Settings > Show SSH Manager)

    Add an SSH config item pointing to a host

    Misconfigure the SSH key (to force a failed connection)

    Attempt to double-click to connect (fails as expected)

    Fix SSH key configuration

    Try to double-click the SSH config again — nothing happens

    Remove and re-add the config — still no effect

    Only the first tab responds, and only after add-delete cycles

📋 What I Expected:

    Double-click on SSH config item should trigger ssh session as before

    No layout or popup-related Qt errors in logs

🖥 System Information:

    OS: Fedora 42 KDE Plasma

    Display server: Wayland

    Konsole version: 25.04.3-1.fc42.x86_64

    SSH Agent running: /usr/bin/ssh-agent -D -a /run/user/1000/ssh-agent.socket

    Shell: zsh

🪵 Log Messages:

>From journalctl during Konsole usage:

QLayout: Cannot add a null widget to QHBoxLayout/
qt.qpa.wayland: Creating a popup with a parent, QWidgetWindow(...) which does
not match the current topmost grabbing popup...

SSH Agent confirmed running.
🔁 Attempts to Fix:

    Reinstalled Konsole

    Deleted old Konsole profiles (~/.local/share/konsole/)

    Tried fresh konsolerc config

    SSH plugin UI still renders, but does not trigger any connection on
double-click

💡 Additional Notes:

    Issue only happens under Wayland

    Might be focus, event, or popup-related regression from Qt or KWin

    Downgrading Konsole may be required if no workaround is found
