Hello,
My issue is with Evolution runing in an AppVM based on a fedora-41-xfce template.
Evolution is asking for the imap/smtp passwords again and again.
Some informations:
- I use i3.
- gnome-keyring seems to be running, ps aux | grep gnome-keyring gives me:
/usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --start --components=pkcs11
- In seahorse, I can see a default keyring with several entries.
I have a strange behaviour with seahorse, partially working (1) and partially not working (2):
- If I check my Nextcloud connection keys in the default keyring, I can see two entries. For both of them, I have a key that I am able to see or copy.
- If I check my Evolution passwords in the default keyring, I can see entries such as
Evolution Data Source name@domain.yy" (Mail Account - imapx)
→ If I open them, the password field is empty.
→ If I manually put the passwords there, they seem to be saved. But if I close and reopen seahorse, the field is empty again.
When I enter my password in Evolution, I get the following event in journalctl:
janv. 07 00:40:29 pro gnome-keyring-daemon[971]: asked to register item /org/freedesktop/secrets/collection/Trousseau_5fde_5fcl_c3_a9s_5fpar_5fd_c3_a9faut/3, but it's already registered
I have already tried to delete the Evolution entries in seahorse in order to let Evolution create new ones, but with no results.
Any idea why Nextcloud keys are stored but not Evolution passwords?
Thank you for your help!
