I will file upstream also. I should note that the original reporter
mentions that he upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04. Mine is a fresh install,
but with a big twist. Since I have many users, I copied over the
~/.gnome2/keyring directories from the Fedora 8 that we were coming
from. Also, I moved their entries in passwd and shadow over into the new
Jaunty /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow files. All the entries use md5 hashes
in /etc/shadow rather than the new SHA-1 or whatever it is that Jaunty
normally uses. Also the UIDs are < 1000, which differs from what would
be the case if I had recreated them in jaunty. (Keyring tries their
login passwd as the keyring passwd before it asks them for their keyring
password.  Right? So the shadow file could be implicated.)

I've just finished resetting the passwords for all the users to get the
new hash type. And tonight I think I will delete and recreate their
keyrings. Since we don't have a flood of people reporting this problem,
it stands to reason that there is something different about my setup.
