Description Mike Gilbert gentoo-dev 2017-11-10 22:12:46 UTC
As I understand it, libsecret talks to any daemon that implements the dbus secret service interface.

A hard dependency on gnome-keyring is technically incorrect, and brings in additional dependencies on systems that would not otherwise require them.

I see. After some searching, it seems the situation has not changed in the last 4 years.
