You have been subscribed to a public bug: My first symptom appeard when Evolution started to ask for my GAL password every time I opened it. I tought it was IT staff messing with exchange. Then, evolution started to crash after being opened. I found this report https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=953641 that gave me the clue to look around gcr. I tried to view my stored passords in Seahorse and I was unable to do that. This fact let me discard evolution/exchange problems. I focused on libgcr.
$ sudo aptitude remove --purge libgcr-3-1 and libgcr-3-common The first option was to uninstall a lot of packages. I answered no until the proposed action was downgrade the packages. libgcr-3-1 and libgcr-3-common were downgraded from version 3.2.2-2ubuntu4.1 to 3.2.2-2ubuntu4 As sugested in the bug report, I killed gnome-keyring. After this, Seahorse shown my stored passwords and Evolution worked just as expected. ** Affects: gnome-keyring (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed ** Tags: dialog evolution gcr libgcr password regression-update seahorse -- No password request dialog shown after upgrade of libgcr in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1221909 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-keyring in Ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
