[Bug 1781193] [NEW] kwallet forgot my password and asks for a password when it did not use to

[Jan Daciuk]

Public bug reported:

After a software upgrade yesterday involving libpam-kwallet4 and libpam-
kwallet5, a window with a title "KDE Wallet Service" appears when I
choose a VPN channel in knetworkmanager, launch opera, etc. Until
yesterday, this did not happen. In addition, when I enter the correct
password, the window reappears with a message "Error opening the wallet
kdewallet. Please try again. (Error code -9: Read error - possibly
incorrect password.) The wallet used to ask for its password only in
some situations, probably because it kept passwords in two wallets: one
accessible through kwalletmanager, and one invisible, but still working,
and containing most passwords.

I understand that KDE wallet is no longer secure, but it still collects
my passwords, and there seems to be no other application that can save
them automatically.
