Stretch will have KF 5/Plasma 5 based Kontact + Dolphin. So the other way around is more likely. As far as I heard the intention is to have most apps available in KF 5 / Qt 5 variants. I have already seen KF 5 / Qt 5 uploads of kde extras apps like Kaffeine, smplayer and others. Amarok, Krita, Digikam, KMyMoney still missing. I am not sure about Amarok, but I think the others will be ready for packaging in time. > Just in case this is not a known issue; > if you run kde4 based apps, like konqueror or kontact, they use a wallet > that is not supported and not visible in the kde5 based kcm. Dolphin in unstable is KF 5 / Qt 5 based already. KDEPIM + Akonadi in experimental, soon in unstable I bet, too. > So if you go > to the wallet manager you will see different information or no wallet at > all.

It times-out and shows an error dialog). You can help. For any bugs in KF 5 based wallet, I suggest you check with upstream bugtracker at bugs.kde.org and if there are critical bugs also report with Debian, including a link to the relevant upstream bug report.
