Hi, I know feisty is now in Feature Freeze but I give this a try. If it doesn't fit for feisty it will still useful for feisty+1.
I've written an main inclusion request for pam-keyring, please see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MainInclusionReportPamKeyring Pam-keyring allows the user to unlock his gnome keyring at login. This is really useful in conjunction with network-manager which store wifi password in the gnome-keyring. Some other applications (gajim,...) also use the gnome keyring to store passwords. In other OSes (ie MacOSX) the keyring is unlocked on loggin, it makes the user have a "that just works" feeling. It seems to have a lot of questions on forums about pam-keyring and I found a thread about this on the archives of this ML. The main problem seems the change of the GNOME keyring password. ATM libgnome-keyring support this, there is only no frontend to make the change. Some patches (made by pam-keyring upstream) are awaiting on the gnome-keyring-manager BTS, the problem is that the maintainer of g-k-m is not really active. ATM pam-keyring FTBFS on all arches, the last version in debian fixes that (sync request, see LP bug #84225). It should build on all arches. So what could be done? Regards Laurent Bigonville
