before the update i choosed the gpg and all worked fine.
after the update kwallet ask me for a password, but i have no password for the wallet.
also when i want create a new wallet it is only possible to choose the blowfish method. there is no gpg option.

We had to deactivate the GPG support as it was not working as well as we expected it to. The unfortunate side effect of this is that you will need to start a new wallet as the old one won't be usable any longer. Alternatively you can simply move the old wallet out of the way and new tech will automatically create a new wallet that will get unlocked on login automatically.
