I have been using the KeePassX password manager on CentOS 6 and 7 for
some time and it works pretty well. On my Windows machine I use
KeePass which offers a number of features missing from KeePassX, I
also sync the database between several machines, including Android
units where I use keepass2android. Database compatibility is thus
required.

Are you aware that KeePass 2 works under Linux, with mono? There are
also ports for Android, but I've never tried them.

You may have reasons to prefer KeePassX over KeePass 2, though.

I for one use keepassx. My password database is synchronized between
variety of systems, and I can view/edit it on: CentOS, FreeBSD, MS
Windows, Android (and should be able on any derivatives of those). I
didn't try iOS as currently I don't have a need in that.

Incidentally, does anybody know if there is any necessity in keepassx to
be patched? Did I read the original post correctly: there is no activity
on the development site for long time? Should there be any? (As, I would
say for comparison: cvs is so established software that there is no
development to expect, only if there are any security holes found those
need to be patched). Any insight on KeePassX anybody?

hello

using keepassx probably for 10 years or so across linux,win,mac,ios

in late 2015 there was a security issue found and folks @ keepassx.org
patched it fairly  quickly and patch propagated
up to epel quickly as well ...

passwd manager {non-cloud ones} , in my opinion,
is a "static"  concept ...
unless no issues with the underlying frameworks,
what's there to patch ...
