Where does one report issues with the "Firmware Security" System Settings page?

Help

Obviously, I could use bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?classification=I%20don%27t%20know or ?product=systemsettings, but I’d like to save triage time.

Examples

  1. Search results are all on one line:

    I don’t believe that this applies to my SSD, because it should solely apply to the 2 TiB one (so not my 256 GiB one): [1]

    Only the 980 Pro 2TB is affected by this as far as I’m aware, so I wouldn’t worry about updating other drives.

KDE has nothing to do with the packaging of distributions. In your case here it is the Fedora packaging of the fwupd related packages and their data contained in them which is wrong according to you with the affected drives. That is who needs the bug report to fix their broken packaging.

@JohnBrown, thanks. I presume that would also apply to the secure boot status, but [1] wouldn’t apply to the single-line search result too, though?

Yes. If it is KDE that is the party responsible for the one line only shown then a bug report against that module is in order. I have no clue on how to determine who is the one that did that display option though.

Thanks, @Justin. I’ve filed 499069 – Firmware Security KCM returns search results in a single line..
