Disable ksshaskpass on KDE neon

To disable the pop-up window when opening a SSH-connection on KDEneon first uninstall the ksshaskpass package:

sudo apt purge ksshaskpass

Then comment out all lines in /etc/xdg/plasma-workspace/env/neon_ksshaskpass.sh, so that the file looks like:

#!/bin/sh # SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-3.0-only OR LicenseRef-KDE-Accepted-GPL # SPDX-FileCopyrightText: 2025 Carlos De Maine <carlosd.kde@gmail.com> # export SSH_ASKPASS to be ksshaskpass #export SSH_ASKPASS='/usr/bin/ksshaskpass' #export SSH_ASKPASS_REQUIRE='prefer' #ssh-add < /dev/null

Finally restart the bash console: exec bash
