Bug ID: 474658
Summary: do not allow rename of wireguard connection
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasma-nm
Version: 5.27.5
Platform: Debian stable
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: editor
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: pfr...@gmx.de
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Imported wireguard connection (here: wg0) can not be renamed to a more
meaningful name.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. copy wireguard client config to /etc/wireguard/wg0.conf
2. import it via "nm-cli connection import type wireguard file
/etc/wireguard/wg0.conf"
3. open plasma-nm applet
4. select imported connection - named here as wg0
5. change name to (for example) "home system"
6. get message: connection.interface-name: new connection wireguard: interface
name contains invalid character (translated from german)
OBSERVED RESULT
Rename failed
EXPECTED RESULT
Rename accepted
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Debian GNU/Linux 12
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.103.0
Qt Version: 5.15.8
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
It seems that the applet re-uses the connection name as interface name also. It
should provide a separate field or select the interface automatically.
So it allows to give the connection a more meaningful name.
The connection as such is working. The remote system is accessible.
