Bug reported also on the official Owncloud client, which is the same
version apparently as the Ubuntu distribution package:

https://github.com/owncloud/client/issues/6455

There it is mentioned that the responsible package is qtkeychain, which
is installed when the client is installed and interacts with gnome-
keyring to store the key. I have marked those packages as involved and
from my limited knowledge about them. I hope that some developer takes
knowledge and makes a patch in qtkeychain. The package that has been
installed in Ubuntu for years is llibqt5keychain1 Qt API to store
passwords (QT5 version) and has not been updated since 2016.

I must say that the only way to store the key is in an update from
Ubuntu 16.04 or from Ubuntu 17.10, in fact it is the way I keep working
from my main machine, but a clean installation this time is impossible,
I have tried in virtual machines with the results described. The
official launch of Ubuntu 18.04 is next week.

PD: Apologies for the English with which I write, I must confess that I
do it with the Google translator, my native language is Spanish.

Bug reportado también en le cliente de Owncloud oficial, que es la misma
versión aparentemente que la del paquete de la distribución de Ubuntu:

https://github.com/owncloud/client/issues/6455

Ahí se hace mención que el paquete responsable es qtkeychain, que se
instala al instalar el cliente e interactúa con gnome-keyring para
almacenar la clave. He marcado esos paquetes como involucrados y desde
mi escaso conocimiento al respecto. Espero que algún desarrollador tome
conocimiento y se haga un parche en  qtkeychain. El paquete que se
instala en Ubuntu desde hace años es llibqt5keychain1 Qt API to store
passwords (QT5 version) y no se ha actualizado desde 2016.

Debo decir que la única forma en que se logra almacenar la clave es en
una actualización desde Ubuntu 16.04 o desde Ubuntu 17.10, de hecho es
la forma en que sigo trabajando desde mi máquina principal, pero una
instalación limpia este momento es imposible, la he intentado en
máquinas virtuales con los resultados descritos. El lanzamiento oficial
de Ubuntu 18.04 es la próxima semana.

PD: Disculpas por el ingles con el que escribo, debo confesar que lo
hago con el traductor de Google, mi idioma nativo es español.
