Bug Description

All the passwords are still saved in kwallet, however none of them work [are used].

Connecting to previously saved VPN's, WiFi networks, and encrypted volumes prompts for passwords.

If this is unavoidable, then I propose some strong warnings be added. I have 244 network passwords [now basically useless], and about a dozen encrypted volume passwords to re-enter.

I should probably add that I've reverted to 14.10 (btrfs snapshots) and exported the wallet to xml and imported it with kf5 kwallet and it still ignores the pre-existing passwords.
