We do have a ticket to allow Geary to compile without gnome-keyring support: http://redmine.yorba.org/issues/5813  The idea would be that other platforms could be supported via a keyring plugin-style architecture.

For now, however, Geary requires GNOME keyring.

I'm afraid bare Awesome isn't an environment we can support.  You might try installing various GNOME infrastructure packages and seeing if you can get it to work.  It's been a long time since I ran Arch, but I'm sure the necessary GNOME packages are in there somewhere.

Let us know if you figure out what the requirements are!

Cheers,
