--- Comment #5 from Rex Dieter <rdie...@gmail.com> ---
fedora's kdeconnect packaging includes a firewalld definition/profile for ports
used (per comment #2), and installs it as

/usr/lib/firewalld/services/kde-connect.xml

It's contents are:
<service>
<short>KDE Connect</short>
<description>
KDE Connect allows intercommunicating with mobile devices to receive messages
and notifications.
</description>
<port protocol="tcp" port="1714-1764"/>
<port protocol="udp" port="1714-1764"/>
</service>

This allows users to use firewalld UI's (like firewall-config) to easily allow
this communication if they wish (by opting-in to allow it).

It cannot be enabled automatically or by default (by policy)


As this wishlist is stated, I'm not sure kde-connect itself can tell whether
it's communications are being blocked by a firewall (like firewalld).


As an aside, I've also lobbied fedora's kde-sig to use 'Fedora Workstation'
firewall zone by default (which would allow this out of the box), but that
proposal was rejected.
