Bug#1141141: libpam-gnome-keyring: gnome-keyring remains locked after fingerprint login

[Simon McVittie]

Control: retitle -1 libpam-gnome-keyring: gnome-keyring remains locked after fingerprint login

Please try to be precise in bug reports: if you say "remains unlocked" 
when you meant "remains locked", that completely changes the meaning.

How could this work? The keyring is stored "encrypted at rest" with your 
password as the decryption key (that's the point of gnome-keyring). If 
you logged in without ever typing your password (for example using a 
fingerprint), how would gnome-keyring be expected to obtain the password 
and decrypt the keyring?
