    KRDC in Plasma5 still calls KWallet4

    Kubuntu (Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS) w/Plasma 5
    KRDC Version 4.14.16

    Behavior:

    When using the "Remember passwords (KWallet)" option, KRDC still calls the legacy kwallet4 using:
    ~/.kde/share/apps/kwallet/kdewallet.kwl
    ~/.kde/share/config/kwalletrc

    Under Plasma5, KRDC should instead call for:
    ~/.local/share/kwalletd/kdewallet.kwl
    ~/.config/kwalletrc

    As it stands now, the legacy kwallet4 can be used, but users cannot configure or change the password on the older kwallet4 wallets using the new kwalletmanager5, nor can the cause the legacy wallet to stay open persistently for any period of time since kwalletmanager4 cannot be installed concurrently.

    Once KDE Applications 16.04 (note KDE's versioning here has zero to do with Ubuntu version 16.04) hit Yakketty 16.10, packages will be back-ported to Xenial via the kubuntu-backports ppa. Can't say exactly when but it looks like 16.04.3 Applications may land in yakkety fairly soon.

      Thanks, claydoh. That was my KDE bug report that I reposted here based on the direction from those comments.

      I had looked here and took it to mean that Yakkety was going to still include the current krdc version: http://packages.ubuntu.com/yakkety/krdc

            Could be a while yet before apps get into Yakkety. We have been trying to get Frameworks(5.24) and Plasma(5.7.2) into the main archive but keep getting roadblocked in proposed. The first issue was with Qt5.6.1, now we are having issues with gcc 6.

            If you want to test Apps 16.04.3, drop into #kubuntu-devel and we can show you how to add the testing PPA's and help with any issues you might have.

              Clivejo, is KWallet using gpg yet? The version using gpg instead of blowfish was supposed to be in KDE 4.12
