GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 726875
Don't throw the KDE Wallet System at me each time I join a room

If you happen to have the kde telepathy packages installed (and are *NOT* running a kde but a normal gnome-shell session), each time you join a room in polari (for example on irc.gnome.org) you get fancy kde popup dialog from the 'KDE Wallet System' that the 'Telepathy Authentication Handler' wants to open/create the wallet 'kdewallet' -- Thank you very much, but I'm in a gnome session!
Just noticed that happens when using empathy as well, looks like this is a telepathy issue/bug...
More likely, this is a local configuration issue. kwallet and gnome-keyring-daemon both offer the org.freedesktop.secret1 service, so you need to make sure that the bus autostarts the right service.
Hm, I don't understand why it starts another secret service despite the fact that gnome-keyring-daemon is already running, doesn't that already offer that service?

It depends. gnome-keyring-daemon can be running in several modes, and is usually started in a reduced mode by pam, with the other components started from dbus or autostart.
I'm not able to replicate this issue. I have tried with GNOME 3.22 on ArchLinux with 'Telepathy Authentication Handler'. Polari starts gnome-keyring-daemon if it is not running, even then KWallet is install and running. Polari has the same behavior if running in KDE/Plasma 5.8.4.
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version of Polari, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/polari/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
