Hello, While I'm not familiar with the arcane magics of gnome-keyring and friends either, this problem may have been caused by a bug that has since been fixed. I say this because I have changed my user password on this machine, both in F33 and now in F34, without it causing any big problems with Evolution, though I believe in all cases I've either logged out or rebooted after changing my password.
