gnome-keyring is blocking google-chrome

hello,

Recently I installed package skypeforlinux-bin (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/skypeforlinux-bin/) with optional dependency gnome-keyring. This dependency allow`s to auto-login on system startup.

But the problem is that package gnome-keyring is blocking google-chrome (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/google-chrome/).

LastPass is also not working. When I want to run google after system boot, I need to write password into pop-up gnome-keyring.
If I leave it empty, then google-chrome is not working anymore (it is offline).

I don`t want to manage my passwords via gnome-keyring, but I want auto-login with Skype.

My question is:
1) Is there any way to blacklist google-chrome and chromium from gnome-keyring?
I just want gnome-keyring only for skypeforlinux-bin and nothing more.
2) why LastPass is not working with gnome-keyring?
3) how can I force pop-up gnome-keyring to appear??
It`s only appearing at system startup. After that - when I don`t put password - is not appearing anymore.

4) I am also thinking about auto-login ( https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GNOME/Keyring >> Automatic login). It will help in this case?

BTW. Skype is working with auto-login, but the main problem is with google-chrome/chromium...

At least #1 can be solved with :

echo '--password-store=basic' >> ~/.config/chrome-flags.conf

Note that passwords will be stored in builtin, unencrypted store.

ok, but when I am using lastpass, then it will be encrypted. Right?

According to Lastpass, yes.
