Bug Description

Binary package hint: seahorse

While looking at a question posed to the evolution-list on changing the keyring password, I noticed that seahorse-preferences does not provide keyring management options:

- creating additional keyrings (well, this one is in seahorse (File/New/Password Keyring, it just does not work)
- changing a keyring passphrase.

Even if password synchronicity is working (i.e., I change my login password and the default keyring password is automagically changed), which I have not yet tested, I would still like to be able to create additional keyrings, or disable integration.

Notice that this was available on 2.22 (Hardy). I do not know about 2.24 (Intrepid) since I do not have a machine running Intrepid desktop.

No, I have no such option. In fact, no keyrings are shown, when I run either seahorse or seahorse-preferences.
