When I try to open my wallet there is the standard read error that suggests the password may be incorrect. This happens both from kwalletmanager5 and using kwallet-query. The password is correct. My guess is something was changed in the KDE software with my upgrade to F28 yesterday. My understanding is that the best approach therefore would be to find a way to open the wallet somehow, say with an older version of kwalletmanager5, and export it to XML, then import it.



What would be my options for accomplishing this? Or is there a better approach?

  • I tried installing KDE on a CentOS 7 VM, but I have the same issue. I'm not sure how I should go about finding an earlier version of the kwallet infrastructure, or which package specifically it would be that I would want to retrieve and compile from source.

  • I've moved my efforts over to bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=397319 . I do not know for sure if it is a bug yet.
