Bug ID: 403648
Summary: Prevent overwrite local changes of kdewallet.kwl file
via KWalletManager service for solve password sync
problems
Product: kwalletmanager
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
Many KDE users want to sync his KDE Wallet password storage between several
computers! This feature is planned natively via ksecretsservice and secretsync,
but seems it development is stopped.
So now only one way to sync passwords is manually sync kdewallet.kwl file via
some sync program (Rsync, Syncthing, NextCloud, Google Drive, etc).
It works very well when only one computer is online, but other is turned off.
But if two computes are online, any change on one computer owerwrite all
changes on other computer.
And if we try to setup new empty KDE account and configure sync after KDE is
loaded, kwallet will overwrite all your password database to empty file!!!
Now we can easily solve this sync problem via listen local changes in
kdewallet.kwl file and reload it on demand, immediately when changes are
detected.
Can any of developers investigate this and describe how hard to implement
listening file changes and reload kwallet database on every change? Thanks!
