In Ubuntu 18.04, with chromium-browser 73 as the current version I see:
$ apt-cache rdepends libgnome-keyring0
libgnome-keyring0
Reverse Depends:
libgnomeui-0
ukui-power-manager
mysql-workbench
moonshot-ui
mate-power-manager
mail-notification
libsocialweb0
libgnome-keyring1.0-cil
libgnome-keyring-common
libgnome-keyring0-dbg
libgnome-keyring-dev
libgnome-keyring-common
gir1.2-gnomekeyring-1.0
So marking this bug report as being fixed.

Title:
chromium depends on libgnome-keyring0
Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Observation:
Chromium depends on libgnome-keyring0
$ apt-cache rdepends libgnome-keyring0 | grep chromium
chromium-browser
chromium-browser
Expectation:
It doesn't depend on it.
Rationale:
The issue is: I installed Lubuntu, not Ubuntu. I don't use Gnome. For these
reasons gnome-keyring doesn't acutally work correctly for me, rather it
interferes with gnupg-agent, inserting itself in the middle of the password
handling. So I would like to get rid of it, only to find that quite a few
packages depend on gnome-keyring for nor obvious reason.
This can't be a hard dependency of course, since Chromium on other platforms
doesn't even have gnome-keyring available, so I see no reason to enforce it
here.
This dependency didn't exist in Ubuntu 12.04.
