Public bug reported:
A MAJOR problem with Ubuntu is the endless prompts that GNOME-keyring
gives the user if the user creates an account (e.g., buys something,
registers to write reviews in USC, etc) in Ubuntu Software Center. Once
user creates an account in USC for whatever reason, the user will be
CONSTANTLY harrassed with prompts from the GNOME-keyring to login
whenever user is using Ubuntu.
This is so annoying! It is so annoying I had to resort to reinstalling
the OS to get it to stop. Unfortunately, this means to keep the prompts
from reappearing, I am unable to login or create any account in USC.
This also means I cannot purchase software from USC because then the
prompts will start again.
So that users can buy software in USC , please fix the GNOME-keyring so
it doesn't needlessly prompt for password. If the user needs to login
for something, it should be a user initiated action. That is the user is
going to do something that requires a login, so the user manually logs
in. There should be no background stuff happening that causes the
keyring to put up a prompt. I do not have UbuntuOne active or anything
like that. There is absolutely no reason whatsoever for the keyring to
be prompting to be unlocked. This is a MAJOR bug.
I've attached a PNG showing what the prompt looks like.
