** Description changed:

- gnome-keyring-daemon lacks a man page telling about the program and how
- to use it.  It currently has only a place holder with virtually no
- information.  Attached is a draft for discussion of a man page for the
- daemon.
+ Impact 
+ ======
+ gnome-keyring-daemon lacks a man page telling about the program and how to 
use it.  It currently has only a place holder with virtually no information.
+ 
+ The gnome-keyring developer added a better manpage in 3.10 but this
+ wasn't noticed by the Debian packages until 3.12. Therefore, this is
+ just a packaging problem as the better manpage is already provided in
+ the package source. This bug therefore affects Ubuntu 14.04 LTS but not
+ 16.04 LTS.
+ 
+ Test Case
+ =========
+ $ man gnome-keyring-daemon
+ 
+ Does the manpage provide program options?
+ 
+ Regression Potential
+ ====================
+ None. The gnome-keyring-daemon manpage in 14.04 LTS is so minimal as to be 
basically useless.
