ANNOUNCEMENT: gnome-keyring 2.29.90



gnome-keyring is the part of the GNOME Desktop that saves your passwords
and encryption keys securely.

This is an unstable release for testing and development.


Important Notes:
================

    * gnome-keyring-daemon no longer supports the old protocol
      for accessing secrets or passwords. A new DBus API called
      'Secret Service' is implemented. The new libgnome-keyring
      abstracts this change in a mostly transparent way.

    * libgnome-keyring is no longer bundled. It is distributed
      separately.

    * GTK+ 2.18 is now required.

    * The XDG autostart files are used more extensively to
      startup and control what components of the daemon run.

    * Some helpful notes for distributors:

Changes between 2.29.5 and 2.29.90:
===================================

    * Quit daemon when the dbus session is disconnected.
    * GNU Hurd build fixes.
    * Solaris build fixes.
    * Translation fixes.
    * Don't print out warnings on SSH v1 keys.
    * Remove erroneous egg-dbus dependency.
    * Allow saving password for encryption keys.
    * Fix problems storing secrets in keyrings.
    * Expose idle and timeout lock options for keyrings in the
      prompt dialog. Fix remaining issues to get this to work.
    * Display a different message when unlocking the login keyring.
    * Fix problem with phantom 'xxx_1' keyrings appearing.
    * Load and use the default keyring properly.
    * Support accessing template style pkcs11 attributes.
    * Fix endless loop when looking for encryption key password
      in login keyring.
