HOW TO get a KDE5 kwallet addon running well with opensuse 42.2

you need Qt 5.7 instead of Qt 5.6

beware it is for advanced users
this can lead to problem about running KDE.
maybe you get a broken KDE

I recommend strongly to open an IceWM session and to operate the following procedure
from this IceWM cession.

i recommend some training by using a Vbox Virtual machine of Opensuse


in Yast software repo manager

add repos (you need the two's):

KDE Frameworks5

http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Frameworks5/openSUSE_Leap_42.2/

KDE Qt5

http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Qt5/openSUSE_Leap_42.2/

in Yast software manager
display the repos
then
select "KDE Frameworks5"
then
click on "replace system packets"
then
accept
then
display the repos
then
select "KDE Qt5"
then
click on "replace system packets"
then

WARN:
this procedure can replace some current packets by older packets! not many.
for some packets in "KDE Framewors5" version number is older than current packets

you must check if this is the case by scanning the repos "KDE Frameworks5" and "KDE Qt5"

before this in yast software manager in menu "options" check "authorize supplier changing"

you must fix this problem.

you must also unactivate signing check
by changing in about:config the value of "xpinstall.signatures.required" to false

opensuse 42.2 x86_64
FF 50.0
kde5 kwallet addon 1.3

when filling a template with id and pwd then FF does not ask for me if i want to record id and pwd

After FF sync
- i go to check what is recorded in FF list of id and pwd. the list is empty.
- in kwallet there is no "Firefox" part in kwallet.

note: in kde4 environment i use kde4 kwallet addon wtih success with the patch

opensuse leap 42.1 x86_64
kde 5
kwallet5
FF 47
i experiment this cyclically:

i launch FF
then
kwallet asks for me the password then i fill it
then
i can use FF
then
i close FF
then
i launch FF then FF crashes
then
FF offers me to restart it
then
FF restarts then i can use it
then
i close FF
then
i launch FF
then FF crashes
then
FF offers me to restart
etc.

if iuse kde4 kwallet addon instead of kde5 kwallet addon then no pb.
but
is it safe to use kde 4 kwallet addon with kwallet5 ?

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.0).
