Re: Why does Evolution source registry periodically search Secret Service?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Evolution relies on gnome-keyring for authentication. If you set up the
keyring to open with your login password, that will cover anything Evo
needs. You can of course have separate keys for different apps (using
seahorse), but that will require more interaction when using those
apps.

I've replaced GNOME Keyring with KeePassXC so that I can store everything in one password manager. The issue is that the Secret Service protocol is designed for password managers like GNOME Keyring that store metadata unencrypted, so the provider is expected to allow searches without unlocking the database. KeePassXC encrypts everything, so it has to prompt me to unlock the database when a program does a search. See https://github.com/keepassxreboot/keepassxc/issues/4443.
