Issue 199: Prompt.AppendFile crashes when file is not writable http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=199 Comment #6 by allbery.b: I will repeat here something I mentioned on the xmonad list: there are problems like this scattered through the contribs. One I'm specifically aware of is in SshPrompt, which assumes ~/.ssh/known_hosts is always readable; this is problematic if $HOME is on an authenticated network filesystem and the authentication token expires. (Keeping ~/.ssh readable for public keys is not so useful when you need to get such a token on login; usually (NFSv4, AFS) this means using Kerberos for authentication, which is incompatible with public keys.) -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
