Use kwallet4 on LXQt #66
Conversation
LXQt is a Qt environment and gnome-keyring feels alien. Also idea: would you accept a patch which allows user to override auto-detection using an environment variable? I know it's now possible to override XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP but this has other unwanted implications on the app using qtkeychain.

Shouldn't LXQt use kwallet5 instead of kwallet4 (also see: #63) |
|
On my system it's kwallet4.
That's another point in case: maybe let user override the choice of
wallet?
|
|
Decision by user would be best option for me, too. |
|
Who's the "user" here? The application developer or the end user? I can make the wallet preference configurable, but the UI to configure that would be something the applications using qtkeychain would have to implement. Another option is a config file option, which might help some people but is not very user-friendly either... |
|
I'm talking about the end user here. The GUI would be a nice thing too, but even supporting a QTKEYCHAIN_BACKEND environment variable would be helpful. Sure, it's not as user friendly as a GUI, but at least it would be an easy answer for people who would like to use a different wallet than the one QtKeychain selected for them - I see you have a plenty of ticket with the same issue. A GUI would be a nice addition to that, but I guess it will be years before application developers keep up with this. |

+1 for the environment variable QTKEYCHAIN_BACKEND, would be sufficient for my needs (currently compiled a custom version) |
|
#75 for that environment variable thing |
