[SOLVED] KDE: KWallet broken in session

I have migrated my home directory to my new machine, but I am experiencing a number of small issues. The major one is kwallet seems completely broken.

Opening the KWalletmanager, I get greeted with:

Code: Select all

An error occurred when connecting to the KWallet service.
Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
Dbus, Kwalletd6 and KSecret all seem to be present and accounted for. The default wallet (kdewallet.kwl) is present. I used to have automagical unlock of the wallet on login on the old system.

Does anyone know what is going on, or suggest where to start looking?

I found the problem. I had enabled the gpg useflag in package.use. I re-emerged without that, and killed the running KWallet, got a password prompt from KWalletManager, and now it is working just fine. I'll see what happens at the next reboot.
