  Description     : KWallet integration with PAM

Integrated KWallet with PAM so you can log in to open a KWallet.

Entering a KWallet password directly after entering the (possibly identical)
login password is redicoulus (see https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92845
for more details). This is one of KDE's biggest usability problems and one of
the most voted bug reports, which correlates with my experience supporting
Debian/KDE users.

The upstream support for KDE 4 (and thus probably Jessie) is kind of a mess.
However, Kubuntu took the upstream code and already made a package, which
works for Jessie, too:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/de/trusty/amd64/pam-kwallet

It would be great if a DM or DD could upload this small package (less than
600 LOC) to Debian in time for Jessie.

After installing the package, the following two lines
> auth optional pam_kwallet.so
> session optional pam_kwallet.so auto_start
should be added to /etc/pam.d/lightdm-greeter (from the lightdm package).

With these changes and if the login password is identical to the KWallet
password, the default wallet (kdewallet) should get opened automatically
after login.

Kind regards
Patrick
