--- Comment #12 from Pedro V <voidpointertonull+bugskdeorg at gmail.com> ---
The dependency is even more specific than described here.

On an LTS (read "outdated") setup I figured I'd install the Flatpak-flavored
Kontact to give KMail a try without running into old bugs.
The discovery of the package heavily depending on the host setup was already
unpleasant, didn't stop though, but I just couldn't set up even a single
account. All I had was a "Could not access KWallet. It is necessary to store
the password. Please activate it." error message with the wallet open in the
background.

Hours of crashing (offense seems to be taken for removing the not even set up
account) and pointless searching later I figured that there's no way around
this non-working hard dependency, so I'd start looking into why isn't it
working properly. Firing up `dbus-monitor` showed communication attempts with
"org.kde.kwalletd6", but not with my "org.kde.kwalletd5".
