OK. I don=E2=80=99t use GNOME myself but I think the goal is for =E2=80=98gnome-service-type=E2=80=99 and =E2=80=98%desktop-services=E2=80= =99 to provide something that works out of the box, and that=E2=80=99s why I thought it might make sense = to have the keyring service as a default. But anyway, I understand what you=E2=80=99re saying, so we can leave it as = is and we can always revisit it later if someone feels a need. Thanks! Ludo=E2=80=99. PS: Please keep the bug Cc=E2=80=99d.
