Keebuntu
KeePass 2.x plugins that provide Linux Desktop integration. These are primarily targeted for Ubuntu (but can work on other distros as well).
Status Notifier
Provides a notification tray icon for KeePass on Plasma/KDE5. Also works with
GNOME desktop via gnome-shell-extension-appindicator (installed by default
as a dependency of the ubuntu-desktop package).
Background
The built-in notification tray icon for KeePass does not display in the panel. This is because notification tray support for WinForms applications is broken in Mono.
Package
keepass2-plugin-status-notifier
Note: this package conflicts with keepass2-plugin-tray-icon (you can only
have one of these installed at a time). Compare the usages to decide which
package you want to install.
Usage
In KDE, left-clicking the icon trays and untrays the KeePass application. Right-clicking the icon displays the menu.
In GNOME Shell right-clicking and left-clicking both show the menu. Double-clicking will tray or untray the KeePass application.
Classic Tray Icon
Provides a notification tray icon for KeePass.
Tested with the following desktops:
- Cinnamon
- MATE
Does not work with:
- Ubuntu Unity
Background
The built-in notification tray icon for KeePass does not display in the panel. This is because notification tray support for WinForms applications is broken in Mono.
Package
keepass2-plugin-tray-icon
Note: this package conflicts with keepass2-plugin-application-indicator
(you cannot have both installed at the same time). Compare the usages to decide
which package you want to install.
Usage
Left-clicking the icon will activate the KeePass window. Right-clicking the icon displays the menu.
Launcher Quicklist
Takes menu items from notification tray icon and displays them in the Unity Launcher menu. It also works with the plank dock (installed by default in elementary OS).
Background
The built-in notification tray icon for KeePass does not display in the panel. This is because the Ubuntu Unity Desktop only supports application indicator type tray icons. This plugin provides an alternative means of accessing the menu items of the tray icon.
Package
keepass2-plugin-launcher
Usage
Right-click on the KeePass 2.x icon in the launcher. You will find menu items such as Lock/Unlock Workspace and Generate Password….
