KDE Wallet is pushing itself for every service. When I start Chrome the first time after rebooting, KDE Wallet wants my password and I don't know why. When I press cancel, KDE Wallet just appears in the next moment. This game continues until I enter my password. Know, I service called kded5 (I don't even know this service!) asked with KDE Wallet my password. Same game: I click cancel and it appears again until I enter my password. I think I have the same problem with KMail (not using anymore) and VPN. To make it clear: I don't want to use it! I *NEVER* asked for! And I don't had any similar problems with Gnome. I want it to be quiet by default. This should be possible, because other desktops don't have this problem. KDE folks: A desktop has to be quiet! I want just to work! I don't want to spent hours to set up my desktop for a normal workflow how I know it from other desktops. I'm using Fedora 23 with Plasma 5.7.5
Sorry, I can't edit my report. "Know, I service called kded5 " should be "Now, a service called kded5 ...".
- You can create a wallet with an empty password. But then the wallet file is not encrypted. - You can use kwallet-pam extension to automatically use the user password to unlock/decrypt the wallet file. You might need to ask in a forum of your distribution to set it up. - for network passwords, you can configure connections to work system-wide, but then the netword password might be stored unencrypted.
Actually I reported this, because I wanted a good default behaviour. I want to install Linux for my girlfriend on her PC and I don't want to tell her, that she has to spend hours to configure her PC until it works how she expects it. So, if this is really the solution, I will recommend her Gnome.
The default behavior favors security over simplicity, in other words, you need to supply a password to unlock/decrypt the content stored in the wallet. If your distribution does not setup kwallet-pam extension by default, you could search for a distribution that does. This is not something that can be decided by KDE developers.
