Hi Petr,

Wouldn't it make sense to completely drop the libgnome-keyring git
backend and just switch to the new libsecret based one? I don't think
any gnome users would need both because the two libraries both talk to
the same daemon, gnome-keyring-daemon.

libsecret is just a new API and a replacement for libgnome-keyring, I
don't think there's a need to build the support for both.
