I think your comment supports my argument that the kf5 kwallet migration process hurts more than it helps.
It needs to startup and get out of the way, and don't bother the user (and "just work")
well and what happens to applications which are now KDE4 using the old wallet and over time migrated to kf5?
Fedora generally won't ever upgrade kde4->kf5 apps in a release, so the primary time that will happen is on new releases.
don't change anything over the long
In that case, users are free to manually initiate importing if they wish
in other words: it may take years where you have to take care after each dist-upgrade how and if it possible to migrate things left and right by hand until anything is kf5 only - what a nice future
well, and at the point we are finished the same circle likely starts again with KDE6 - honestly that is all bullshit - there is no valid reason that applications can't use their previous settings except "we as upsteram developers don't care, throw away all the working code and settings because it's easier to not care about our endusers"
that said from somebody maintaing the same software without compatiblity breaks for 12 years now for hundrets of users and any internal change is only my problem and has to be *totally* invisible for my endusers
