Description Vincent Untz 2011-11-16 10:47:02 UTC 
$ grep Exec *desktop.in
gnome-keyring-gpg.desktop.in:Exec= gnome-keyring-daemon --start --components=gpg
gnome-keyring-pkcs11.desktop.in:Exec=/data/build/gnome/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --start --components=pkcs11
gnome-keyring-secrets.desktop.in:Exec=/data/build/gnome/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --start --components=secrets
gnome-keyring-ssh.desktop.in:Exec=/data/build/gnome/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --start --components=ssh

The /data/build/gnome/bin prefix is bad, as it might end in packages...

I *hate* how ${prefix} is expanded late in autotools. :(
Comment 2 Matthias Clasen 2011-11-24 20:15:34 UTC 
Can I propose that we move away from autostart files for gnome-keyring components altogether, and instead use the 'required session components' mechanism ?

We really want to be moving away from using autostart for desktop infrastructure.
Comment 3 Stef Walter 2011-11-24 20:30:37 UTC 
Do you have a link? It sounds good for certain parts of gnome-keyring.

But its important to note that the GPG and SSH agents in particular are optional, mostly because they don't yet have all the functionality of their console counterparts.
