I am on Guix System.
Gajim told me I needed a keyring to save my password, so I installed
gnome-keyring in my user's manifest. I then also added its service to my
config.scm and did a reconfigure. After all that, I did a `sudo herd
status` and gnome-keyring was not in the list anywhere.

gnome-keyring-service is not a shepherd service. It is a pam service,
that ensures your login keyring (if it exists) is unlocked when you log
in. That's all it does.
`ps x | grep gnome-keyring` should have a non-empty output. Mine
includes this:
/gnu/store/47nl5kpkc3sgwasrbk06sgaig22w07ha-gnome-keyring-
3.34.0/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --daemonize --login

The only output I get back from that is the very grep I'm running. I
didn't have gnome-keyring in my manifest, so I added it. Then I
rebooted. Still nothing. I also installed python-keyring.
Someone had me run `keyring --list-backends` which seems to show I have
no working keyring backends. I haven't messed with keyrings before, so
maybe I'm just doing something wrong here.
(output of above command)
```
keyring.backends.fail.Keyring (priority: 0)
keyring.backends.chainer.ChainerBackend (priority: -1)
```

That's quite an interesting observation. Could you tell me what DM
(gdm, sddm, sway) you're using?
The gnome-keyring PAM service works by adding an auto_start login
entry, that refers to gnome-keyring's
/lib/security/pam_gnome_keyring.so. I don't think you need GNOME
keyring installed for that to run, but the default configuration
assumes you're running GDM. You will need to adjust it if you use
something else.
Regards,
Leo

I'm using sway, I launch it with `exec sway` from a tty.

👆 idiot thinking sway is a DM and not a WM.

Since you manually exec sway, you can either configure gnome-keyring-
service, so that it always runs on login (be aware, that I haven't
checked that configuration and it might lock you out forever, so use
rollbacks if that happens), or try to start the keyring manually or
from sway.
