Firefox addon for kwallet KDE4
Various KDE 1.-4. Improvements
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
Firefox stores its passwords internally, optionally protected by a master password. KDE has its own password manager called KWallet. KWallet stores every password in the KDE system, and protects access by a master password. With this extension you are able to use KWallet instead of the default Firefox password manager. It allows tighter integration of Firefox inside KDE.
IMPORTANT: This version works ONLY with KDE4, for the KDE5 version use: http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=173994
It seems that the crashes experienced by the users are related to the new Javascript JIT Compiler Called ION Baseline. Disabling it seems to solve the problem. You can disable it by setting javascript.options.baselinejit.* in about:config to false

disconnect from sync service
unactivate kwallet plugin
restart FF
check that kwallet plugin is well unactivated
connect to sync service
go to FF password manager
copy somewhere the password of "Chrome://FirefoxAccounts (Firefox Accounts credentials)"
activate kwallet plugin
in kwallet manager replace the password of "Chrome://FirefoxAccounts" by the password you copied somewhere
restart FF
enjoy !
my explication : passwords(tokens) delivered with or without kwallet manager activated are different
with kwallet activated
{"version":1,"accountData":{"sessionTokenContext":"fx_desktop_v1","unwrapBKey":"d92...fe7","keyFetchToken":"6vg...3eb","customizeSync":false}}
with kwallet unactivated
{"version":1,"accountData":{"sessionTokenContext":"fx_desktop_v1","customizeSync":false,"kA":"65...09","kB":"01...46"}}

It uses a token as a password .
for each access (each time you launch FF) or after a delay token is renewed.
in kwallet the record is :
<mail address>,,Firefox Accounts credentials,Chrome://FirefoxAccounts
and
<password> = {"version":1,"accountData":{"sessionTokenContext":"fx_desktop_v1","unwrapBKey":"d92...fe7","keyFetchToken":"6vg...3eb","customizeSync":false}}

kwallet-integration freezes firefox 33.0.2 on startup. Unusablility.
In the command line it gives
QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
QEventLoop: Cannot be used without QApplication
when I say killall -9 firefox it closes and displays
[17761] ###!!! ABORT: Aborting on channel error.: file /builds/slave/rel-m-rel-l64_bld-000000000000/build/ipc/glue/MessageChannel.cpp, line 1547

After changing
initialize
back to
init
in .mozilla/firefox/n57hypb2.default/extensions/kwallet\@guillermo.molina/components/KDEWalletStorage.js
firefox works again (but password integration doesen't). Damn. Any Ideas?

I don't get the save password popup, if I open saved passwords I don't see any (I have several saved in kwallet from previous versions), and if I try to manually enter a new password I get this error:
Quote:Got an error:
[JavaScript Error: "this._storage is null" {file: "resource://gre/components/nsLoginManager.js" line: 323}]'[JavaScript Error: "this._storage is null" {file: "resource://gre/components/nsLoginManager.js" line: 323}]' when calling method: [nsILoginManager::addLogin]
Did you try to create a duplicate login entry?
and nothing gets saved.
I think it doesn't even try to connect to kwallet, because I tried to revoke the authorization and it does not even prompts to authorize the connection.
I'm using iceweasel (firefox) 31.2.0 from debian testing. The addon is configured to use the "Iceweasel" folder instead of the default "Firefox" folder.
On icedove (thunderbird) 33.0 it is perfectly working, thanks!

When this option in Firefox is enabled passwords are visible in Firefox option remembered passwords. If Firefox still remembers them seems to be no reson to use this addon.
I'd be glad if the author of this addon could give a few more words on how it works.

mkdir plugin
cd plugin
svn checkout http://svn.guillermomolina.com.ar/firefox-kde-wallet-2/
Edit this file: xpi/components/KDEWalletStorage.js
Find this section:
init: function() {
this.log( "init() Start" );
this._lib.init()
...
change the first line to:
initialize: function() {
save and exit the text editor.
In the plugins/ directory, follow the instructions in the file: BUILD
You don't need to create the tarball.
After you've done: `make archive`, open the file that was created one level above plugin/ in firefox and it will install the working plugin.
NOTE: you need the following to perform these steps:
svn
cmake
g++
kdelibs5-dev
Good luck.
