Priority: medium
Bug ID: 77170
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: Integrate with a keyring to store network passwords
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: All
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.2.2.1 release
Component: framework
Product: LibreOffice
Currently, AFAICT, LibreOffice needs a username and password to access
documents over the network (in my case, an OwnCloud WebDAV connection already
negotiated by GVFS). It then uses a master password to protect network
passwords.
This is sub-optimal, IMHO. What should be done is to integrate with desktop
environment keyrings, should they be available. E.g. if the user is running
GNOME, LibreOffice should use gnome-keyring. If the user is running KDE, LO
should use KWallet (I believe that's what it's called); if the user is running
OS X, use the Apple Keyring. If it's running in an environment with no system
keyring, like Windows, LibreOffice should just fall back to the current
behavior.
