Bug ID: 1434572
Summary: Review Request: keepassxc - Cross-platform
community-driven port of Keepass password manager
Product: Fedora
Version: rawhide
Component: Package Review
Severity: medium
Assignee: nobody(a)fedoraproject.org
Reporter: alexandre.zanni(a)engineer.com

My Initial message from
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1433765
Fedora seems to use `KeePassX` as password manager.
But `KeePassX` development seems to be stoped sinc KeePassX 2.0.2 release
(2016-02-02). See website [
changelog](https://www.keepassx.org/changelog) or
[
PR](https://github.com/keepassx/keepassx/pulls).
Hopefully `KeePassXC` takes over. See [
website](https://keepassxc.org/project)
or [
Github](https://github.com/keepassxreboot/keepassxc).
They added some new features :
Auto-Type on all three major platforms (Linux, Windows, OS X)
Stand-alone password generator
Password strength meter
YubiKey HMAC-SHA1 authentication for unlocking databases
Using website favicons as entry icons
Merging of databases
Automatic reload when the database was changed externally
KeePassHTTP support for use with PassIFox in Mozilla Firefox and chromeIPass in Google
Chrome and Chromium.
Many bug fixes
For a full list of new features and changes, have a look at the [full KeePassXC
changelog](https://github.com/keepassxreboot/keepassxc/wiki/KeePassXC-Cha....
They also plan to add [support for KDBX4 file
format](https://github.com/keepassxreboot/keepassxc/issues/148).
I think it's a good perspective to switch from KeePassX to KeePassXC in the
next major fedora release.
Actually Fedora Package db haven't `KeePassXC` but it is available into Fedora
Copr:

So this issue is not only about adding KeePassXC into next Fedora templates but
also to remove KeePassX from them. That's why I didn't add KeePassX on the
Package maintainers wishlist on the wiki for now.
PS: I previously created an issue on Qubes OS issue tracker (for their Fedora
template):
https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/2717.
Why KeePassXC instead of KeePassX?
