[Pkg-owncloud-maintainers] Bug#766436: owncloud-client: owncloud client does not open kwallet

[Dmitriy Istselemov]

Package: owncloud-client
Version: 1.7.0~beta1+really1.6.4+dfsg-1
Followup-For: Bug #766436

Hello,

It seems to me that last time I was too optimistic. Owncloud client still does
not open kwallet by itself. If kwallet is opened by any application or
manually, then the client uses password stored there. Otherwise it asks for
password by itself with its own password prompt.

I used empty password for my kwallet. That's why there was no password prompt
when any application triggered kwallet. I also used akonadi which opened
kwallet before owncloud started, I think. That's why the client never asked for
password and used password from kwallet. Disabling akonadi made owncloud client
to ask for password every time it started.

And one more thing. If kwallet is opened once and then you close it manually
and restart owncloud client, the kwallet password prompt to allow access to
owncloud client appeares.  So the client uses kwallet if the wallet has been
opened once and then closed.

As a workaround for such behavior I made a script and put it into autostart
folder.

#!/bin/bash

kwalletd
qdbus org.kde.kwalletd /modules/kwalletd org.kde.KWallet.open kdewallet 0
owncloud
/usr/bin/owncloud

May be someone can suggest more beautiful solution (I'm not a programmer).

Best regards,
Dmitriy Istselemov
