Description Dotan Cohen 2009-11-29 14:28:11 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.3.3)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Sometimes applications ask for access to the wallet and it is not clear why. For instance, why does Amarok need access to the wallet? Please add a small explanation as to what functions of the program will be disabled if wallet access is not granted. Thanks.

Apparently Amarok needs access to Kwallet for the last.fm service integration. Please make that clear when asking for wallet permissions. Thanks.

This is really up to each application to document. For displaying which application is requesting access, see Bug 451039.
