[desktop-discuss] [Fwd: Removing gnome-keyring-manager from desktop distribution]

[Brian Cameron]

I'd guess this means we don't need to worry about gnome-keyring
and gnome-keyring-manager anymore.   Darren Kenny is the owner
of gnome-keyring.spec.  Any thoughts?

Seahorse now has surpassed the functionality of gnome-keyring-manager,
as far as managing one or more keyrings and the passwords contained in
them. It does things in a more simple manner, and hopefully more
understandable. Screenshots attached. [1]

As was discussed before on this list, I'd suggest we remove
gnome-keyring-manager from the 'desktop' distribution for 2.22. The tool
may have uses elsewhere, but I'm not sure we need to duplicate this
functionality in GNOME.

Cheers,
Stef Walter
