Title:
  keyring location is not documented and differs between installations

Status in gnome-keyring package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I found keyrings on different locations.
  Sometime below ~/.gnome2/keyrings, sometimes below ~/.local/share/keyrings/, 
sometimes in both locations.

  The README.Debian is only mentioning:  .gnome2/keyrings
  The man page for gnome-keyring-daemon doesn't document any location.

  The problem for me is that I want to consolidates of the login.keyring
  between several installations.
