Bug ID: 400462
Summary: kwalletd legacy dbus service file
Product: frameworks-kwallet
Version: 5.51.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general

Target Milestone: ---
kwallet 5.51.0-1
The kwallet package includes a legacy dbus service file[1], that binds to the
old name (from kde4?) and has Exec=/usr/bin/kwalletd.
The problem is that the executable doesn't exist, i.e it's not created by the
same package, it seems to have been left for backward compatibility when
/usr/bin/kwalletd was installed by kde4.
>From what I understand, the new kwallet (/usr/bin/kwalletd5) does implement the
old dbus interface, so it seems that the most logical fix would be to have
org.kde.kwalletd.service be a copy of org.kde.kwalletd5.service.in file[2], or
a symlink (on supported platforms).
PS.
this is not a victimless issue.
some applications seem to fail on this, in my case I noticed that
owncloud-client fails to get credentials right after login, probably by
requesting the old name, and dbus failing to exec the old executable.
Later, when /usr/bin/kwalletd5 is started by something else, I need to restart
owncloud-client to get its credentials, but is annoying.
