I had a similar experience, which appeared suddenly in a previous installation of NetBeans 6.9.1 that had been working fine. Ubuntu 12.04.2
NetBeans suddenly started asking me for a "master password" when it never had done that before. The /var/log/messages.log showed the same error as above trying load libgnome-keyring.so. Workaround: sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgnome-keyring.so.0 /usr/lib/libgnome-keyring.so -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libgnome-keyring in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/890280 Title: Missing /usr/lib/libgnome-keyring.so symbolic link Status in “libgnome-keyring” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Symbolic link pointing to default version of libgnome-keyring is missing.
