I previously fought against having gnome-keyring and eventually gave up, since more and more things wanted to use it. Now, I find it quite useful. Lots of GTK applications (and XFCE is GTK based) want to use gnome-keyring, and between evolution, dbeaver, nheko, and others, it has become a benefit (to me) rather than an annoyance. If you decide to give it a try, app-crypt/seahorse is a useful companion application for managing the keyring's contents. > > Should not this instruction say emerge --pretend --depclean rather > than --unmerge ? Since its pretended, the result is the same, ultimately.
