Can I remove gnome-keyring?
There is currently a bug in gnome-keyring which keeps throwing up an error message about no socket to connec to. I don't know why I have this package, given that I don't use gnome (or any other desktop manager). Will anything dreadful happen if I remove it? -- Anthony Campbell - a...@acampbell.org.uk Microsoft-free zone - Using Debian GNU/Linux http://www.acampbell.org.uk - sample my ebooks at http://www.smashwords.com/profile/view/acampbell -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

If it is installed because of a required dependency coming from another package you can't remove it without pain :-) If the package came through a recommended dependency and you nor other program or libray are making use of it, there should be no problems to remove it.

I don't know how it got there. But wajig show-remove indicates that nothing else will be removed so I guess it will be all right.
