Bug ID: 463638
Summary: Wallet manager does not work until libkf5wallet-bin is
manually installed
Classification: KDE Neon
Product: neon
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Packages Unstable Edition
Assignee: neon-b...@kde.org
Reporter: o...@geek.co.il
CC: j...@jriddell.org, neon-b...@kde.org, sit...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
The org.kde.kwalletd5 DBus service is provided by the Neon package
libkf5wallet-bin, which is only required by the optional kwalletcli package -
so it isn't installed by default.
Without the org.kde.kwalletd5 service, wallet manager doesn't work - it has no
UI (just a blank page and a menu with options that don't do anything) and the
terminal has logs like "The name org.kde.kwalletd5 was not provided by any
.service files".
Also other things that apparently rely on the org.kde.kwalletd5 do not work -
such as wireless network password storage.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install a new Neon unstable system
2. Log in
3. Run kwalletmanager --shot
OBSERVED RESULT
The wallet manager shows but it has no UI to manage wallets.
EXPECTED RESULT
The wallet manager should have a UI to manage wallets
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.80
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.101.0
Qt Version: 5.15.7
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Another reproduction showing a problem is to open the KDE Wallet KCM (from
System Settings) and see that the "select wallet to use as default" has no
available options.
I haven't actually installed a new Neon unstable system (I upgraded to it from
Kubuntu). But even if libkf5wallet-bin is installed on your system, the problem
can be seen by running `apt purge libkf5wallet-bin` and noticing that
kwalletmanager isn't one of the packages that apt would like to remove as part
of the process.
