Bug#968247: kdeconnect: Cannot browse files: "A folder named ~/.cache/kioexec/krun/(numbers)/ already exists"
Package: kdeconnect
Version: 1.3.3-2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch upstream
On Debian 10 Buster: Associate with the phone, open the kdeconnect window
in the tray area, click the file browsing button: it errors out with
"A folder named ~/.cache/kioexec/krun/(numbers)/ already exists".
It seems this has been solved upstream? https://askubuntu.com/a/1129886
Workaround (tested):
- find out your device id with kdeconnect-cli -l
- open your file manager on /run/user/$UID/<your_device_id>
