While that check-box is correctly modifying kwalletrc, the KWallet API (kwallet.h) seems to incorrectly handle the case where the user disabled this subsystem. Expected behavior: the openWallet (mainly) and the other methods of the KWallet class should gracefully fail when the KDE wallet subsystem is not enabled. Actual situation: only a warning is issued, visible only when built in DEBUG mode and only in the console output of the KWallet API client application. Further inspection shows that all the API go ahead and call the dbus service. But kwalletd itself quits if it founds the disable flag upon launch, leading to an unpredictable results situation.
