Yes. The kwallet and gnome keyring providers are loaded dynamically and
the loader will not look for providers in the right place. There are
several ways to get the test to PASS:

- If you install in the final destination before running the tests then
  the providers will be loaded from the install dir.

- If you add --enable-local-library-preloading the libtool files will be
  edited to preload the providers. We have had some problems in the
  past with this editing breaking the scripts.

- Or you can set LD_PRELOAD yourself.
