[Bug 1872075] [NEW] Can't access phone filesystem with KDE Connect

[Jan Rathmann]

Public bug reported:

Hello,

if I try to use KDE Connect on Kubuntu Focal, I can't access the phone's
filesystem anymore.

If I click on the phone icon in Dolphin, I get the following error
message:

"Error when accessing filesystem. sshfs finished with exit code 1."
(see also attached screenshot)

This happens the same way on two different phones (BQ Aquaris X, Google
Nexus 4), both phones have KDE Connect 1.13.7 from F-Droid repository
installed.

What I've tried to fix this:

- Unpair/Pair the phone
- Deleting ~/.config/kdeconnect
- Test in a different, pristine installation of Kubuntu Focal

Neither of that helped.

Before Focal I used Kubuntu Eoan with Kubuntu Backports PPA enabled. On
Eoan, I could access the filesystems of both phones without any problem,
so this seems to be somehow related to a change in Focal.

Kind regards,
Jan
