           Summary: Kopete Forgets Account Passwords Permanently if You're
                    too Slow to Verify Opening KWallet with Your Master
                    Password
           Product: kopete
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kopete-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: bugreporting at rhesusb.com


Version:           1.0.0 (using 4.4.2 (KDE 4.4.2), Kubuntu packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.32-21-generic

For a while now, while using alpha and now beta versions of Kubuntu 10.4, if I
don't enter my password quickly enough (say, like in 10 or 15 seconds) to let
Kopete access the KWallet when logging in, Kopete will chose to prompt me for
my account passwords instead, claiming that the password used must've been
wrong, and that I need to resupply it.

If I just close those dialogs and shut down (or kill -9) kopete, the next time
I run it, it will still prompt me for account passwords, ignoring those that
are found (I guess, unless they've been removed?) in the kwallet.

Reproducing it (at least here) is simple: Set up accounts, choose to remember
the passwords in kwallet, log out, log in, and when prompted by kwallet to
provide the master password so that Kopete may access the wallet, wait for
Kopete to instead prompt directly for passwords.

Cheers,
Daniel :)
