Title:
Software Centre asks for password to unlock login keyring
Status in Software Updater:
New
Status in software-center package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
I cannot login to the Ubuntu Software Center without getting the
following prompt:
"Enter password to unlock your login keyring
The login keyring did not get unlocked when you logged onto your computer".
This is a fairly fresh installation of Xubuntu 13. I have never been
prompted for a keyring password. I have never touched anything related
to the keyring. I do not even know if I have a keyring password, let
alone what my password is. I would assume it is the same as my login
password. But if that's the case, shouldn't it be logged in? Why does
everything else get along fine without prompting me for this
information? This message is to me as a user, spurious, confusing,
unhelpful, and slightly worrying because it is related to system
security.
