Fine.

It's an openSUSE (downstream) problem.

As I tried to explain already, it's not a problem in Tumbleweed either, but
rather in the upgrade process from earlier versions (before 13.1). The same
happens if you upgrade your system from e.g. 12.3 to 13.1/13.2 and then
install/use Plasma5.

In KDE4 this was no problem as kcheckpass was installed as suid root. For
Plasma5 the security team declined that unfortunately.

But this is the wrong place to discuss this. If you want to, add a comment to
the openSUSE bug report.
