libpam-gnome-keyring currently installs a pam-auth-update config, 
but only does so for "password". [A]

People in this bug report suggest that also "auth" and "session" are 
necessary.

Please see to this bug report, to avoid degrading user experience, 
or settle this manner in some other way. As said above, having each 
login manager do something special does not scale.

Best,
Chris
