Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : pam-kwallet Version : 0.0~git20140429-0ubuntu1 Upstream Author : Alejandro Fiestas Olivares (afies...@kde.org) * URL : https://www.dennogumi.org/2014/04/unlocking-kwallet-with-pam/ * License : GPL Programming Lang: C Description : KWallet integration with PAM
Integrated KWallet with PAM so you can log in to open a KWallet. Entering a KWallet password directly after entering the (possibly identical) login password is redicoulus (see https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92845 for more details). This is one of KDE's biggest usability problems and one of the most voted bug reports, which correlates with my experience supporting Debian/KDE users. The upstream support for KDE 4 (and thus probably Jessie) is kind of a mess. However, Kubuntu took the upstream code and already made a package, which works for Jessie, too: http://packages.ubuntu.com/de/trusty/amd64/pam-kwallet It would be great if a DM or DD could upload this small package (less than 600 LOC) to Debian in time for Jessie. After installing the package, the following two lines > auth optional pam_kwallet.so > session optional pam_kwallet.so auto_start should be added to /etc/pam.d/lightdm-greeter (from the lightdm package). With these changes and if the login password is identical to the KWallet password, the default wallet (kdewallet) should get opened automatically after login.
