[Bug 874199]

[Andrei-mihaila]

@Valentin:
First of all thank you very much for investigating this issue.

Tried the workaround, don't know if I did it right, but it didn't work - started Amarok and KCalc (could be any 2 KDE apps) then ran in a terminal:
--------------
qdbus org.kde.kwalletd /modules/kwalletd org.kde.KWallet.open kdewallet `xwininfo -int -name 'KCalc' | grep 'Window id:' | cut -d' ' -f4` 'Test KCalc' &
qdbus org.kde.kwalletd /modules/kwalletd org.kde.KWallet.open kdewallet `xwininfo -int -name 'Amarok' | grep 'Window id:' | cut -d' ' -f4` 'Test Amarok' &
--------------

Got roughly similar results to what I wrote in the initial bug report:
--------------
Error: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply
Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
--------------

and a locked kwallet.


I wish I could help with the fix but I don't have enough QT knowledge (if at all - I was able to tell that the lock happens when the nested event loop starts but didn't know why).
When creating the fix one should bear in mind that there might be cases when a window-less client asks for access to KWallet (for example subversion or git). So for this kind of situation it may be better to have a totally independent thread/process that waits for the wallet to open and then sends the result back to the caller.
