[Bug 744929] Re: After auto-login, prompted to unlock keyring multiple times
I did a fresh install of 11.04 on 9/5/2011 and have all updates
installed. I'm having the same problem with the keyring so I don't
think this bug is fixed.

Title:
After auto-login, prompted to unlock keyring multiple times
Status in GNOME keyring services:
Fix Released
Status in “gnome-keyring” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in “gnome-keyring” source package in Natty:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Binary package hint: gnome-keyring
TEST CASE:
Start with a clean session and:
1. Mark it as autologin in gdmsetup
2. Add a WPA wireless network
3. Configure a jabber account in Empathy
4. Add empathy to the startup applications list
5. Log out, log back in
6. Verify keyring unlock question is asked twice
7. Install updated gnome-keyring from proposed
8. Repeat steps 5
9. Verify keyring unlock question is only asked once.
I have auto-login set up on my laptop. When the desktop loads, it
prompts me to unlock the keychain. I enter my password, and another
prompt appears, identical to the first. In total, 4 prompts appear
each time I turn on my laptop.
The key thing is this: I only have to enter my password once. If I
enter my correctly password on the first prompt, the keychain is
unlocked and I can press "Cancel" (or hit escape) on all further
prompts and the laptop works as expected. If I do not enter my
password on the first prompt and hit "Cancel" on all 4 prompts, then
the keychain is not unlocked and eventually I get prompted again.
So it seems like multiple requests are being made to gnome-keyring
when the keyring is locked, and gnome-keyring puts up a prompt for
each of these requests, rather than waiting to see what happened after
the first prompt was dealt with.
This is seemingly related to the experience of some of the commenters
on bug #637702, but it was suggested in the comments on that bug that
new bugs should be filed with specific details. I would be happy to
provide further information and/or help debug this.
