otherwise - if KMail is configured to use kwallet and KMail is configfured to automatically start during KDE login - it failes to query KWallet w/o any further useful errors. Stopping KMail and starting it manually helps of course.

I doubt it's plasma-workspace, as kmail does not even depend on it... more likely kdepimlibs or kdelibs. Anyway this sounds like a timing problem... Nothing in .xsession-errors? > Stopping KMail and starting it manually helps of course. Why "of course"? Please enlighten us! :) Anyway, as a datapoint, neither kwallet nor kwalletd link to kdepimlibs or anything semantic desktop directly; any connection in that direction has to run via kdelibs.
Created attachment 270113 [details] .xsession-errors with failure >Why "of course"? Please enlighten us! :) ;) Well here's the .xsession-errors with the failure
Created attachment 270115 [details] .xsession-errors w/o failure This is from the "good" case (meaning kde-base/plasma-workspace-4.6.2 is compied with USE="semantic-desktop*" )
Created attachment 270117 [details] popup window This popup window is seen and in addition KMail ask me for my pop3 password.
When you did the comparison between with/without semantic-desktop, did you recompile kdelibs too? How about kdepimlibs?
I re-emerged these packages again (today) : $> emerge -1 kde-base/libkdepim kde-base/kmail kde-base/plasma-workspace kde-base/kdelibs kde-base/kdepimlibs The issue can still be reproduced. FWIW if the issue exists (compiled w/o the USE flag) then I can see a KWallet icon in the system tray. If however I compiled kde-base/plasma-workspace with the USE flag enabled then the KWallet icon isn't shown in the systray (KWallet is however up and running and there, but its icon can be shown only when I click on the arrow of the systray to show hidden icons).

Well that's not really surprising, since we did not change anything. What I'd like to know- if you ONLY recompile plasma-workspace with -semantic-desktop (and leave it switched on in all other packages), does that change anything? (Trying to narrow down the problem.)
(In reply to comment #7) > What I'd like to know- if you ONLY recompile plasma-workspace with > -semantic-desktop (and leave it switched on in all other packages), does that > change anything? (Trying to narrow down the problem.) Yes - of course. I already did that before I filed this bug. If I recompile plasma-workspace w/o that USE flag, then KMail failed to start due to KWallet issues. A soon as I recompile plasma-workspace w/ that USE flag the issue went away (and BTW b/c I'm using ccache, recompiling is fast enough therefore I doubled checked this issue few times in a row).
Should be fixed, now plasma-workspace needs the same semantic-desktop setting as kdelibs.
