Hi Jon,
I'm replying to an old thread; see below. Is there any chance we can get pam-keyring in by default for Fedora 8? If yes, how about creating a Wiki page for the feature much like the ones Matthias created for other F8 bound features as mentioned here
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-desktop-list/2007-May/msg00167.html
so we can track the progress and everyone can get an overview of what work is required etc. Thanks!
David

"PAM_KEYRING is a pam module that launches the
gnome-keyring-daemon and
then unlocks a keyring using your login password."

We have two bugs open against pam_keyring now both of which are
very
important to fix if we need to put this in by default. CC'ing the current upstream and Fedora maintainer
- Should have an automated way to enable -
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=232857
- Make it possible to change keyring password -

The first bug probably can fixed by adding rpm post installation scripts. The second bug currently requiring patching gnome-keyring.
Well you guys caught me at a good time. I am on vacation this week and one of the things I had planned was to finally push the next version of pam_keyring. This version will have password changing support in it and should close bug #212845.
I also started working on mockups of system-config-authentication that include a tab that would detect if you had pam_keyring or pam_ssh was available and add check boxes to enable it at graphical login. Maybe I will spend and hour or two and finish that up. Does that sound like a good solution for bug #232857?
