Confirming, that's planned, it just needs a new binary package and some coordination

now that the PAM module is in gutsy, it would be nice to add a configuration file which can then be included to other config files in /etc/pam.d.

http://live.gnome.org/GnomeKeyring/Pam shows which lines are interesting:

e.g. /etc/pam.d/gnome-keyring
auth optional pam_gnome_keyring.so auto_start
session optional pam_gnome_keyring.so
password optional pam_gnome_keyring.so

Not sure of where to submit this, but it matches this bug so...

As per whoopie's suggestion for package libpam-gnome-keyring.

I have attached a patch for /etc/pam,d/ to make this work properly in gutzy (as in work at all). Briefly tested on my own machine:
- gdm login works, and as per documentation creates a keyring called "login" if it does not exist. This obviously won't match the "default" one that is in the system. Also correctly starts gnome-keyring-daemon
- change password works

Didn't test too much further, but at least my wifi isn't irritating me as much.
