Description Hubert Figuiere (:hub) 2008-05-13 16:06:40 UTC
Start Evolution making sur that keyring access HAS to be granted.

When keyring access and unlocking is requested, click denied.

I then get asked the question over and over and over

Expected:
- Evo just don't ask anymore.

Unfortunately, Evolution doesn't check the error status of keyring operations.  In fact the API that interacts with the keyring doesn't even make it possible to check.  This is on my radar to fix in 2.24, but it will require an API break in libedataserver so I'm not sure there's much we can do for 2.22.
