I'm using Subversion on Linux with a repository hosted on a remote server (via https) and with kwallet as the password store. Everything works as expected except that each time I'm using something like svn commit or svn update from the KDE console, I get the warning

 kf.windowsystem: Cannot use KWindowSystem without a QGuiApplication

although the command is still executed. I have added code to my ~/.bashrc to suppress this particular message, but I'd still like to know what's going wrong here.

In case it matters: I'm using OpenSUSE Tumbleweed installed from snapshot 20250728 this week.

  • I started KWalletManager (or command line kwalletmanager5).
  • removed the Subversion folder (but kept the Secret Service folder, which stored the same password).
  • Running again svn cat, I was asked only once again for the password.
  • The warning is gone.

  • Thanks, but KWalletManager doesn't have a Secret Service folder in my case. Secret Service is enabled in the settings, though. I never touched this option. Commented Sep 15 at 10:27
