gnome-keyring hangs

Hello

Gnome keyring no longer starts correctly when I log in. Instead what happens is that for example when I want to connect to some ssh server, ssh simply hangs. Also seahorse does not show the system store
Killing gnome-keyring (with pkill -9 gnome-keyring-d) makes ssh work again however I have to enter the password.

I'm using i3 and start gnome-keyring the way outlined here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GN … PAM_method

After a few minutes of trying out various combinations of arguments I am sometimes able to start the keyring myself, however this is very much a hassle and requires opening the login keychain manually.

Re: gnome-keyring hangs

I am seeing a similar bug on xfce4 with lxdm using it.  For me, it manifests when I log out and log back in... the pidof /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --daemonize --login goes to 100% on 1 of the CPUs and corresponding programs (ssh or chromium in my case) simply hang until I kill it.
