Reading from keychain failed with error 'Could not open wallet: other; Failed to execute program org.kde.kwalletd: No such file or directory'

@ahmadsocrat this was a known limitation on Ubuntu 18.04 (see https://github.com/owncloud/client/issues/6455) and try our latest build (you have the "dfsg-1" version from Ubuntu repositories):

sudo sh -c "echo 'deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/isv:/ownCloud:/desktop/Ubuntu_18.04/ /' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/isv:ownCloud:desktop.list"
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install owncloud-client

¿Does it work out for you?
