            Bug ID: 313965
           Summary: KWallet does not report errors
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: telepathy
           Version: 0.5.2
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: CONFIRMED
          Severity: crash
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #313955 +++

Application: ktp-contactlist (0.5.2)
KDE Platform Version: 4.8.5 (4.8.5)
Qt Version: 4.8.1
Operating System: Linux 3.2.0-36-generic i686
Distribution: Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS

-- Information about the crash:
- What I was doing when the application crashed:
My system crashed (power outage) and afterwards my Telepathy accounts would not
connect anymore, complaining about an authentication failure after a while. So
I went to the settings and wanted to look at the configuration, and maybe set
the password again. However, when clicking on Edit, the Account Configuration
Dialog for that account would not show up (I saw something flash for a split
second, which may have been a window being created and immediately destroyed).
So I closed the settings again - and Contact List crashed.

I was able to repeat the same thing with the Presence Plasmoid, when
right-clicking and selecting Account Management/Configuration
("Zugangsverwaltung" in German).

Using the kwalletmanager I figured out that the KWallet is apparently not
reachable - the manager displayed an empty wallet. So I killed "kwalletd" and
it was automatically restarted, and now everything seems to work again.

So I assume the bug here is that the Telepathy Authentication Handler does not
report KWallet problems to the user, and that the Account Configuration Dialog
fails to show up when KWallet is not reachable and later makes the program
crash entirely.
