Basically ksecrets implements an open, dbus based, protocol for password storage. This is also the same one that gnome-keyring uses. So if you use any Gnome based apps that require password storage then ksecrets should jump in rather than gnome-keyring (i believe the deamon only runs in KDE so it shouldn't affect gnome users). I was under the impression from the scarce documentation that for the Gnome and KDE being stored in one unified place with one storage password. Unfortunately it seems my testing results were a little premature. I used kwl2kss to migrate from kwallet to ksecrets (i don't think this is supposed to be needed though), ran a couple of Gnome apps such as Epiphany (i don't use it normally but the easiest way to test), stored a couple of passwords in it, closed and opened Epiphany a couple of times to check it could retrieve the passwords and was using ksecrets rather than gnome-keyring, checked that Kde apps could fetch theirs and figured all was well. When i started this morning i found ksecrets was trying to create new storage all over again. Not had a chance to figure out why yet. In short it sounds promising but perhaps not quite as close to prime time as i was lead to believe... > , and if/where to add dependencies on it? Dependencies... i imagine when it is working properly in the same places as kwallet. It is in the long run supposedly going to replace kwallet (more unified, more features such as synchronization etc). > do we > need release notes? those kind of things... Once it is working there shouldn't be any needed. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ package-review mailing list package-review@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/package-review
