            Bug ID: 434670
           Summary: Kdevelop fails to authenticate on Github
           Product: kdevelop
           Version: 5.6.2
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Project provider: Github
          Assignee: kdevelop-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: kitt...@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Kdevelop's GH plugin fails to log in to GH.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Fetch project
2. enter credentials for GH
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
Credentials are not accepted and the procedure returns an error saying it was
impossible to write a token for that account. Exact message:
"
Authentication failed. Please try again.
Could not create token: "KDevelop Github Provider : localhost.localdomain - sab
mar 20 14:06:54 2021 GMT"
You can check the authorization for this application and others at
https://github.com/settings/tokens.
"
EXPECTED RESULT
Credentials should be accepted.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma:fc33 
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.79
Qt Version: 5.15.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
notice that adding a manually created token (from GH website) in the kdeveloprc
file, under [ghprovider] as:
name=[username]
token=[tokenID]
solves the issue and I can see my projects.
I either ways observe no crash in Kdevelop unlike others.
