Bug#638015: seahorse: Changing login password does not change keyring password accordingly.

Package: seahorse
Version: 2.30.1-2
Severity: normal

Changing a user login password through GNOME or passwd does not change it accordingly in Seahorse. One is presented with a "Enter password to unlock your login keyring. The password you use to login to your computer no longer matches that of your login keyring" prompt on each login.

This can be fixed by opening Seahorse and changing the keyring password manually, but this isn't immediately obvious to a new user.
