After a #debian upgrade to Trixie #Signal refuses to start:
"Database error"
"Access on the key of the encyryption of the Database is not possible as the encryption-keyring-backend was changed on the upgrade of kwallet5 to kwallet6.
How do i now get Signal to drop the old database and just create a new one?
I don't really care for any old messages in there.
