Gnome-keyring-daemon still use the old path
Last modified: 2014-03-06 20:05:11 UTC
A few days back i've made a fresh Ubuntu Saucy installation from a netinstall, then upgraded it to Trusty. Looking at auth.log, i've found this error logged: Oct 30 09:55:40 dev32 gnome-keyring-daemon[1549]: Gkm: using old keyring directory: /home/oem/.gnome2/keyrings This installation is sharing a single /home with 2 other partitions distro (ubuntu versions). As per https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-keyring/commit/?id=747b37bbd8fb82830524c8603f6fcf1ceae605dc so it seems there is no migration done if your userconfig already has the old directory. (which is the case) firstly reported on launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-keyring/+bug/1246232
Not sure that's worth a warning, if that's a situation that should be fixed maybe gnome-keyring should do a migration on update?
Hmmm, it's not a warning or error, it's a simple LOG_NOTICE priority message: https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-keyring/tree/pkcs11/gkm/gkm-util.c#n160 https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-keyring/tree/daemon/gkd-main.c#n293 If someone is interested in working on migration functionality, I wouldn't be against that.
