I'm a GNOME 3.12 user with a couple of problems that could depend on GNOME keyring running as root instead of a non-privileged user. This is the situation before logging in with GDM: $ ps aux | grep keyring root 458 0.0 0.0 115220 2808 ? Sl 10:53 0:00 /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --daemonize --login fturco 474 0.0 0.0 10572 2212 tty1 S+ 10:53 0:00 grep --colour=auto keyring This is the situation after logging in with GDM: $ ps aux | grep keyring root 458 0.0 0.0 115220 2808 ? Sl 10:53 0:00 /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --daemonize --login root 495 0.0 0.0 115220 2784 ? Sl 10:53 0:00 /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --daemonize --login root 499 0.0 0.0 115248 3672 ?

I also noted that on my system /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon has the setuid bit set: $ ls -l /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon -rws--x--x 1 root root 940184 Jun 8 16:18 /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon Some directories are owned by root: $ ls -ld /run/user/1000/keyring/ drwx------ 2 root fturco 100 Jun 15 10:55 /run/user/1000/keyring/ $ ls -ld /home/fturco/.local/share/keyrings drwx------ 2 root fturco 4096 Jun 9 18:53 /home/fturco/.local/share/keyrings Is all of this normal? P.S. At the beginning I hinted at a couple of problem I'm having: 1) I cannot access my e-mail account with Evolution; 2) I also cannot connect to my VPN with Network Manager. In both cases I get the following error message in journalctl: > Error calling StartServiceByName for org.freedesktop.secrets: Timeout was reached There are two bugs on GNOME bugzilla describing these problems, one for Evolution and the other one for Network Manager: - https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=728469 - https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=731372 Thank you.
