Okay, after reading the upstream bug, the idea of using the md5 is being criticized because you can still log into the site. First, Jonas claims this isn't even true. Second, as others have mentioned, people might be using the same password for another site and as such compromising this password could be a serious issue.
I would recommend applying the patch provided upstream (against 11.2, I would guess it would apply to 11.5 with proper offsets) to store the md5 instead of the password. This would at least reduce the issue. Then it should also be stored in gnome-keyring but the issue wouldn't be as immediate IMO. Can anyone attempt to apply the patch and give us access to a test package via PPA? -- audioscrobbler password saved configuration file https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/42686 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
