Description michaelk83 2022-09-06 06:57:00 UTC
SUMMARY
When the default wallet is changed in settings, the Secret Service `default` alias is not updated until `kwalletd5` is restarted.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set up KWallet with Secret Service integration enabled, and at least two wallets.
2. Run `qdbus org.freedesktop.secrets`. Make sure `/org/freedesktop/secrets/aliases/default` is listed.
    - If it's not listed, restart `kwalletd5` and KWalletManager (Bug 458774). If that doesn't help, select a default wallet in the settings and restart them again.
3. Run `qdbus org.freedesktop.secrets /org/freedesktop/secrets/aliases/default org.freedesktop.Secret.Collection.Label`, note which name is returned.
4. In KWalletManager -> Settings -> Configure Wallet, select a different wallet to use as default, and click Apply.
5. Run `qdbus org.freedesktop.secrets /org/freedesktop/secrets/aliases/default org.freedesktop.Secret.Collection.Label` again.

OBSERVED RESULT
Step 5 returns the same name as step 3. The `default` alias is not updated.

EXPECTED RESULT
The `default` alias should be updated. Step 5 should return the updated selection.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.97.0
KWalletManager: 22.08.0

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The `default` alias is updated after restarting `kwalletd5` (and KWalletManager?).
Either the settings module needs to make a `org.freedesktop.Secret.Service.SetAlias` call when the default wallet is changed, of `kwalletd5` needs to listen for configuration changes and update Secret Service as needed.
