How To Install kwalletcli on Fedora 34
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install kwalletcli on Fedora 34.
What is kwalletcli
A command-line interface to the KDE Wallet, for KDE 4 and KF5 (so shell scripts, Python, etc. do not need to use DCOP or D-Bus directly to access it to store passwords, instead being able to call this convenient wrapper). KF5 does come with a kwallet-query utility, however, it requires the caller to know the name of the default wallet, which most scripts won’t know, and lacks kwalletcli’s extra utilities.
