After some investigation it seems the problem is caused by the default keyring being set to "default" in: /usr/share/gajim/src/common/passwords.py This was done to get around a gnome-keyring bug that still exists.
To unlock it automatically the default keyring should be set to "login" (at least on my Ubuntu install). I believe this is the keychain Hardy automatically unlocks on login. Attached is a diff of the changed passwords.py with the orig. Altenatively, ubuntu could unlock both the login and default keyring on startup. I elected not to do this since I think it is cleaner to have all the startup keys in one keychain. I hope this helps, ** Attachment added: "Diff of change to use login.keyring instead of default.keyring for Gajim" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/14346109/diff_passwords.py_passwords.py.orig -- [hardy] Gajim doesn't use default keyring https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/221851 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
