Wire version: 3.35.3348 Wire for web version: 2024.04.25.09.21.36 Operating system: Debian 11 (Bullseye) Which antivirus software do you have installed: none

What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. Start wire-desktop
  2. Try to log in with email and password

What is the expected result? Being able to log in.

What is the actual result? Got error message: "Wire can’t access your system's safe storage. Find out how to log in"

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if possible.

Went thru various steps to fix the problem: wire-desktop --password-store="gnome-libsecret" [24374:0504/163710.162726:ERROR:nss_util.cc(357)] After loading Root Certs, loaded==false: NSS error code: -8018 Error occurred in handler for 'EVENT_TYPE.ACTION.ENCRYPT': Error: Error while encrypting the text provided to safeStorage.encryptString.

Using Debian 11 Bullseye and Xfce 4.6. Have KeePassXC with Secret Service Integration and Kleopatra. I installed keychain and then rebooted. Wire came up without a prompt. On next boot, the program had same problem: Wire can’t access your system's safe storage. Find out how to log in

There appears an inconsistency in operation, as well as incomplete directions found at https://github.com/wireapp/wire-desktop/wiki/Grant-access-to-system's-keychain-(Linux)

Maybe I'm doing something wrong or missing a step, but the program does not seem to work out of the box.

The same problem, in my case it happened when upgrading from kde5 to kde6.

Also, in my case, the link to help info opened only when I turned on English in the program.

P.S. I used version 3.34 from distro repo, tried to download the appimage (v3.35) it works without problems.
