though

Title:
[about-me] login password not synced with gnome-keyring
Status in GNOME Control Center:
New
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Binary package hint: gnome-control-center
I found this in http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/ideatorrent/idea/17813 -
but it's not an enhancement request/idea, it's clearly a bug.
To reproduce:
1. Create new user
2. Logon as the user
3. Connect to a wireless network that requires a password
4. Change your login (UNIX) password using the "About me..." tool and the "Change password" button.
5. Logout of your Gnome session.
6. Login (with the new password) - you will get prompted to “Enter password to unlock your login keyring” and your OLD user password will be required.
Workaround: Manually change the keyring password.
This bug is also described here:
http://karuppuswamy.com/wordpress/2010/06/18/enter-password-to-unlock-
your-keyring-prompt-in-ubuntu/
The user is not prompted in the first place that he/she is using
Seahorse to store the wireless network key (which is good UI design,
hiding unnecessary complexity). This makes it even more confusing when
it turns out that the old password is needed to unlock the keyring.
This should be synced.
