GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 610998
Keyrings aren't unlocked if "Automatically unlock ..." is selected
Last modified: 2010-03-23 18:22:22 UTC
The bug has been opened on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-keyring/+bug/526560 "Example: 1. Open Seahorse 2. Right-click on a keyring and select "Unlock" 3. Input password and check "Automatically unlock ...", press "enter" 4. The dialog disappeares, but keyring isn't unlocked 2.29.90git20100218-0ubuntu1"
Setting as GNOME target since that's an obvious option which was working and it seems to confuse quite some users who try to select it and get gnome-keyring unlocking just not working
