Bug ID: 382733
Summary: kwallet export does not save salt file
Product: frameworks-kwallet
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: va...@kde.org
Reporter: soos.m...@gmail.com
CC: kdelibs-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
This is a very serious issue -- the "Save As..." functionality doesn't save the
salt file (.salt) so the saved wallet can never be opened. In fact, this makes
the "Save as..." functionality not only useless, but highly dangerous. I
thought I had a backup, but I did not, as when I wanted to open the backup with
"Import Wallet..." and clicked on the .kwl file, it "created" a new, random
salt, which of course didn't work, so the correct password is not accepted, and
what's worse, there is no correct password, as the random salt is nowhere.
Hence, the backup was NOT a backup and was completely useless. This is _very_
serious and should be fixed as soon as possible.
