Created attachment 678052 [details, diff] Patch to fix this issue When updated to sys-libs/libcap-ng-0.8.2, it caused gnome-keyring-daemon: error dropping process capabilities, aborting when starting gnome-keyring. In libcap-ng-0.8.2/src/cap-ng.c, it have error codes that nobody handles and crashes everything that should be removed. Put attachment 0002 [details]_fix_apply_disable.patch into /etc/portage/patches/sys-libs/libcap-ng-0.8.2 fixed this issue. This patch will remove error codes that nobody handles and crashes everything.

vowstar: the comment you have in the patch is "Upstream: Fedora patch". Can you please link it directly?
I should have made this clear last night before adding the PATCH tag: the patch is not an obvious solution and may not be safe. Needs more research.

Unsure about applying the patch used in Fedora given that upstream have cut a new release since and not included both of the fixes previously being applied there. Masking for now while we decide on a way forward.

Johnson <robbat2@gentoo.org> CommitDate: 2020-12-14 23:21:07 +0000 sys-libs/libcap-ng: add patches for gnome-keyring-daemon breakage The upstream author of libcap-ng is ALSO the Fedora packager, and ships a critical behavior fix regarding new error codes for the recent versions, both of which are available in different Fedora releases. After careful review, include BOTH of those releases in our tree, to allow testing for regressions. Closes: https://bugs.gentoo.org/759550 Signed-off-by: Robin H.

Given Fedora is still shipping it (and the upstream maintainer == Fedora maintainer), I'd rather wait a bit longer before dropping. That said, gnome-keyring is fixed since 40, and it was the only known breakage AFAIK.
