Bug Description

pam-kwallet enables unlocking of kwallet's secret data storage without having to enter a password on session start.

To get things rolling we'll need to ship a new version of pam-kwallet (that unlike the present version actually works), add a trivial change to kde-workspace to hand the startkde envrionment over to the helper, and last but not least actually add the pam-kwallet helper to the lightdm pam configs.

Including pam-kwallet will bring a significantly improved user experience, even if a bit on a short notice.

affects: linux (Ubuntu) → pam-kwallet (Ubuntu)

Approved as an expected feature which brings us back to feature parity with what we always (thought we) had. But needs thorough testing.

  [ Scott Kitterman ]
  * Revert dropping of plasma-scriptengine-ruby from plasma-scriptengines now
    that the ruby1.8 dependency for ruby-plasma is fixed

  [ Harald Sitter ]
  * Fix kubuntu_dont-force-on-path.patch proper
    + alias qdbus to a forceful QT_SELECT=4 call
    + replace the mindnumbing var eval for qdbus calls with calls through
      the alias (i.e. it reads as qdbus and not $qdbus)
  * Add upstream git commits for pam-kwallet integration LP: #1305307
    They are passing the startkde envrionment to the pam, so it can unlock
    the wallet from the right kdehome.
