How to avoid this warning?
Hello, As per the subject: it's a lot of time that I see the following warnings in my system log and I've not been able to sort it out yet: gkr-pam: unable to locate daemon control file gkr-pam: stashed password to try later in open session My system detail in my signature below.

If I run 'sudo journalctl --this-boot | grep -B2 -A2 gkr-pam', I see those messages too but they're associated with lightdm & i3lock, both of which I use on this system along with having 'pam_gnome_keyring.so' as a part of my pam config ; I assume gkr is a reference to gnome_keyring. I also have a script to unlock the secrets component for 'gnome-keyring-daemon' before I start using Remmina to RDP to a Win11 laptop. I don't use Gnome/KDE, but bspwm as my DE so not everything is loaded as part of a suite of tools. I've been doing this for a long time (at least 6mos on this machine) and never even noticed this before. Granted I don't generally comb through journalctl unprompted 😋️. I'm not sure these are a[n indication of a] real problem, just some (extra) chatter around what the keyring is doing when other PIDs interface with it - which for me makes sense because I'm actively using it. -- ~ Scott Bradnick |- Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) Developer |-- Tumbleweed: |--- Dell Precision 5540 [NVIDIA Quadro T1000] (x86_64) |--- O-DROID H2+ [UHD Graphics 600] (x86_64) |--- 2x Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.2 (aarch64) |--- WinBook TW100 (x86_64) https://keys.openpgp.org/ :: DBC5AA9A2D2BAEBC
