Hello, thank You, Howard, for Your hints. On my system permissions are still set to defaults. Greetings Willi Am Dienstag, 29. September 2015, 06:29:48 schrieb Howard Guo:

Morning . If you set file system permissions to paranoid instead of easy (default), a package upgrade will sometimes trigger the change on kcheckpass permission .

I have also noticed the same behaviour with sudo . under paranoid permission setting, sudo does not have suid. I was one locked out of root access after sudo was upgraded and paranoid permission sets it to 0700.

Today I did an update on Tumbleweed on my laptop from 2015-08-31 to 2015-09-24.

Since it has been impossible to unlock the screen saver ("Permissions on the password database may be too restrictive").

I found the solution (consistent I hope) considering this bug

report¹ and executing the following command (as root): chmod 4755 /usr/lib64/libexec/kcheckpass

This may be the resurrection of a well known bug and should be solved then.

Greetings Willi
