I am trying to use keepassxc as replacement for gnome-keyring. I managed to set it up that way and make it work with eg. evolution. |

You need to create a DBus auto-start file for KeePassXC. See #6274 (comment) . Also, make sure that gnome keyring doesn't auto-start by some other means such as during user login. |

Hi. I have been looking into using KeePassXC as the secret service provider, with some success. I have been facing the same disable gnome-keyring issues at everyone else etc. But I don't really understand what the motivation for using KeePassXC for this purpose is, nor any other tool that is not GNOME? I really like KeePassXC but injecting it into an OS subsystem like this smells like trouble. Is there something particularly bad about gnome-keyring? Can someone take a few minutes to explain to a noob? :-) Thanks. |
