changes:
-build fixes (not relevant to pkgsrc)
* Don't print out a warning message in applications using
libgnome-keyring when non-pageable memory cannot be allocated.
This switches to the new gnome-2.20 branch.
(While this is not part of the "platform" subset formally, it is used
by platform -- this looks like an inconsistency in gnome packaging.)
Changes in version 0.8 are:
* Translations
Changes in version 0.7.92 are:
* Fix build by including sys/types.h
* In gnome_keyring_free() don't crash on NULL parameter.
Changes in version 0.7.91 are:
* Add method for library to discover daemon via DBus. Adds soft
DBus dependency.
* Fixes for building on kFreeBSD.
Changes in version 0.7.3 are:
* Fix endless loop when creating a keyring and a file by that name
already exists.
* Fix crasher when deleting session keyring.
* Fix crasher when doing find operation with NULL attribute string.
* Sync files to disk after writing to keyring.
Changes in version 0.7.2 are:
* Don't have multiple password dialogs presented for the same
keyring
Changes in version 0.7.1 are:
* Added GNOME_KEYRING_ITEM_APPLICATION_SECRET which allows an item
to be for a single application only with strict access controls.
* New function gnome_keyring_item_get_info_full(_sync) which allow
retrieval of item meta data without the secret, thus not incurring
an ACL prompt.
* Translation updates
* NetBSD fixes
* Crash fix
* Typo fix
* Translations
Changes in version 0.5.2 are:
* Translation updates
* Better title in docs
* Fixed crashes
* New function: gnome_keyring_item_grant_access_rights_sync
Changes in version 0.5.1 are:
* Support changing password of a keyring
* Create ~/.gnome2 if needed
* Save keyring when an ACL is added
* Add password strength meter
* Small bugfixes
This fixes gnome-keyring under NetBSD which, AFAICT, didn't work at all.
There are still some problems remaining in gnome-keyring-manager, but I
think these are not related to this issue.
Changes in version 0.4.0 are:
* Build fix on some systems
* Translation updates
Changes in version 0.3.3 are:
* Translation updates
Changes in version 0.3.2 are:
* New API functions for getting/setting ACL
* Implemented delete keyring operation
Changes in version 0.3.1 are:
* New and updated translations.
* New introduction document
* unlocking the NULL keyring unlocks the default keyring
gnome-keyring is a program that keeps passwords and other secrets for
users. It is run as a damon in the session, similar to ssh-agent, and
other applications can locate it by an environment variable.
The program can manage several keyrings, each with its own master
password, and there is also a session keyring which is never stored to
disk, but forgotten when the session ends.
The library libgnome-keyring is used by applications to integrate with
the gnome keyring system. However, at this point the library hasn't
been tested and used enough to consider the API to be publically exposed.
Therefore use of libgnome-keyring is at the moment limited to internal
use in the gnome desktop. However, we hope that the gnome-keyring API
will turn out useful and good, so that later it can be made public for
any application to use.
