About Keepass 2.04 alpha
KeepassdbIMPORTANTThis library is alpha-quality/stability. Tread carefully!keepassdb is a python module to provide an API to read and write KeePass 1.x / KeePassXdatabase files.This project began as a desire to merge together several python keepass projects that providedstrengths in different areas (but none of which worked fully as a standalone solution).Specifically this project owes its roots to:kppy by Karsten-Kai König kkoenig@posteo.de,python-keepass by Brett Viren brett.viren@gmail.com, andkptool by Wakayama Shirou shirou.faw@gmail.comThis project currently supports Python 2.x and 3.x (using 2to3).This software is licensed under the GPLv3 (or later), in accordance with the upstream libraries andthe KeePass project itself.Homepage: Documentation: 2.6+. (This does work with Python 3.x using 2to3.)Setuptools/DistributePyCryptoLimitationsSupports only KeePass V1 databases.Currently supports only AES encryption.Does not fully support the tree state MetaInfo entries that may be added by other programs.Does not work (yet) on Python 3.xInstallationVia easy_install/distribute:Or more traditionally:Basic UsageReadingfrom keepassdb import Databasedb = Database('./test.kdb', password='test')# Display a flat list of all groups and the entries in each group.for group in db.groups: print group.title for entry in group.entries: print "\t-%s" % entry.titleWriting# A locking database will create the .lock file that other KeePass programs expect.from keepassdb import LockingDatabasewith LockingDatabase('./new.kdb', new=True) as db: group = db.create_group(title='A new group') entry = group.create_entry(title='Entry1', username='root', password='test') # etc. db.save(password='test')

Not only did I find this bug, I have a temporary workaround: if you swap to Swatches for the matte color picker, you can pick a transparent swatch and it will work. However, when you NEXT go to export, the matte will look like white again ... however it will still export as if you've set transparent - so I guess that is actually ANOTHER bug of a slightly different kind - it's showing a matte color instead of transparent, but still performing the transparent export. Also, there is a FURTHER bug for export of images with transparent content... and this bug exists in older versions such as 2.04 as well. If you export in PNG palette mode, some colors just vanish and are replaced with transparency, regardless of their alpha. I can see this problem on an image I have that has only 21 unique colors in it. I can understand that the alpha would be lost in palette images because the palette entries have no alpha but I cannot see any reason why opaque colors would simply vanish. I can understand colors that match the 'matte color' being turned into completely transparent. However, I had a white matte and black pixels were vanishing! e.g. Pure black pixels may just vanish altogether, even when the number of different colors in the image is very low. Palette export with a transparent color is, to put it bluntly, completely BROKEN for PNG 2.x on PC. Finally, even with no meta-data or ICC data, exported PNGs that are not in palette format are larger than they need to be, with sub-optimal compression of completely transparent areas.
