Re: [opensuse-buildservice] Using keyring for storing passwords

Hi

First thanks for your patch but I'm a bit hesitant to add a gnome dependency to osc (although it's optional). What about if we simply store the password base64 encoded in the ~/.oscrc file? Wouldn't this be sufficient?

Do you seriously mean base64 as improvement to security?

What is wrong on optional dependency? If python-gnomekeyring is not found or is not working, osc still behaves same as without patch. Maybe there could be also configuration option to disable usage of keyring...
