KWallet stopped recognize password after upgrade

Hello,

I have two kwallet profiles, (at the moment extra/kdeutils-kwalletmanager 14.12.1-1 and extra/kwallet 5.6.0-1)
The "kdeprofile" works as always, and another wallet I have created long time ago, stopped finding it's password after upgrading this week.
The second one, had a password that I have always used, but after restarting kde (logout -> returnrning to kdm), it stopped opening it, claiming that the password may be incorrect (error -9).

As far as I can tell, there is no way to restore/recover/change passwords, but could it be just a bug that is fixable?

Re: KWallet stopped recognize password after upgrade

I have almost a similar error (I've switched from kdewallet-git to kwallet from [extra]). I've fixed when back to kwallet-git, because the git version transform the wallet profile to new version, but when back to older kwallet this don't recognized it (always need put the password but is never recognized (error 9)

in my case, i think is fixed in kwallet 5.7.0 because this commit https://projects.kde.org/projects/frame … a159b45849 is not apply in the 5.6.0 (or more older commit)

try to install kwallet-git and test with older commits (use #commit=sh1 in source=() array. see the pkgbuild VCS wiki ) until to fixed

the list of commit is this https://projects.kde.org/projects/frame … repository

greetings
