Description paolosca 2016-09-05 15:26:22 UTC
Since installing the latest Development version, every time I start NetBeans a KDE Wallet Service window pops up saying:

The KDE Wallet System
The application 'Netbeans IDE' has requested to create a new wallet named 'kdewallet'. This is used to store sensitive data in a secure fashion. Please choose the new wallet's type below or click cancel to deny the application's request.

When I click "Cancel" the window closes but it will pop up again next time NetBeans starts. 

It's not very annoying, but I already use Gnome Keyring to store my passwords and  I'm afraid that, if I accidentally create a KDE wallet, I will have my old passwords stored in a place and the new ones in another.
