gnome-keyring
« le: 25 janvier 2013 à 02:42:19 »
Looking the other day in LV-RC1 and found that the
gnome-keyring was installed but there was no autostart
file for it.

Runs fine without it, perhaps you want it to autostart.

Just FYI

Hello,

the autostart files are in the package:
http://packages.debian.org/wheezy/i386/gnome-keyring/filelist
Citer
/etc/xdg/autostart/gnome-keyring-gpg.desktop
/etc/xdg/autostart/gnome-keyring-pkcs11.desktop
/etc/xdg/autostart/gnome-keyring-secrets.desktop
/etc/xdg/autostart/gnome-keyring-ssh.desktop

if it is not in the file autostart or in the directory $HOME/.config/autostart then the system looks into /etc/xdg/autostart

In RC2, they're in /etc/xdg/autostart, but I have no ~/.config/autostart directory.

Pardon the silly question but what exactly does gnome-keyring do, and do we need it?  It was probably pulled in from somewhere as I didn't install it specifically.  If it's not autostarting are we missing out on anything?
What can go wrong !!!

It's a user security related daemon. It isn't autostarting, according to ps -A and pstree. But, I don't really know if we need it. I kinda doubt it.

Hi,

You need it for a few applications which ask you to keep your password in a keyring. While it's desktop file is in /etc/xdg/autostart, you can very probably activate or deactivate it as well as a few other services with lxsession-edit.





You can create a $HOME/.config/autostart directory if you need one. I am starting to use partly xdg-autostart from mimas's obsession pack, and for this use I need it.

ssh is the only program I can find it uses.   Don't know
if that's mandatory or not.    For a home desktop it
doesn't look like any of those types of programs are
mandatory.    keyring, secret-storage, etc..

Hello Patrick,
The simple way to find out is to do as if you were going to remove it from the system, then you see what might be pulled off along with it if you validate your action.

Hi Mel,

Already removed it previously.    No problems. 
I've disabled them secret-storage items
and re-enabled them later with no
noticeable performance change on other installs.

So it's up to you guys.

Patrick

I had looked at it earlier and it wasn't going to take anything with it if removed.  So I have now removed gnome-keyring from Village_RC2 - will see how it goes. 
What can go wrong !!!
