This issue is still present in Ubuntu 15.10: Seahorse to date still has no option to export/import stored passwords.
This kinda hinders its abilities as a password manager: even if it's probably meant to be mainly a gpg key management interface, it also has this ability to store passwords, so not being able to export/import those as well detracts from its usability forcing users to seek alternative solutions. Given that there has been no activity in this bug since 2014 (see comment above), should eventually a new bug be opened tagging current and future releases? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to seahorse in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550101 Title: Export of keys and keyrings is not available Status in seahorse: New Status in seahorse package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: seahorse When I try to export key or keyring, the menu is grayed out. Thus I cannot make backups of my keys. That would be only a inconvenience, if I could just backup keys by copying seahorse configuration directory. I guess I can do that, if only I knew, where it actually is. It is certainly NOT .gnupg, because when I delete it (in recovery mode, as root), the keys are still there and .gnupg folder is as good as new. It would be very nice to do something about this. When I made a keyring and put all my brand new passwords there, the seahorse somehow managed to lose all keys in it.
