Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-keyring-manager

I used to keyring manager on 7.04 to manager the wireless lan password. Every time I started the computer and it contacted the LAN I would be promted once and only once for the keyring password.

Since updating to 7.10 the keyring manage now goes into a loop, repeatedly prompting for the keyring password until I click "deny". Any further management of the connection starts the prompting loop up again. It's as if the keyring manager forgets the password and needs to reprompt for it.
