[Bug 394307] Re: kphotoalbum thinks a password is already set after a fresh install.
Workaround: 1. Open your KPA settings file: .kde/share/config/kphotoalbumrc 2. Find the relevant Privacy Setting config group: [Privacy Settings - /home/timmc/photos/all/] 3. Add password= as a new line (without the quotes) This workaround gives you a blank password. It would appear that KPA is fine with the user having an empty password, and when the password is empty will not even prompt for it on unlock or password change. However, a *missing* password will cause it to prompt and fail to match a blank password. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/394307 Title: kphotoalbum thinks a password is already set after a fresh install. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I should also note that this workaround worked for KPA 4.1.1, though I suspect it will work in much older versions as well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/394307 Title: kphotoalbum thinks a password is already set after a fresh install. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Does this still actually happen after all updates, the current version in the repositories is 4.1.1. It would be good to report this to https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=kphotoalbum and link the report here. Chris: KPhotoAlbum will not have a crop feature as it is not designed to EDIT photos, only to tag and archive, but leave the photo files untouched. And ability to move deleted photos to Trash is implemented in the recent releases :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/394307 Title: kphotoalbum thinks a password is already set after a fresh install. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 394307] Re: kphotoalbum thinks a password is already set after a fresh install.
I tried this with 4.1.1+svn1210839-0ubuntu0~ppa4 from https://launchpad.net/~dominik-stadler/+archive/ppa and locking seems to work correctly for me. So can someone still confirm this happening? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/394307 Title: kphotoalbum thinks a password is already set after a fresh install. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
