Bug Description

Binary package hint: python-keyring

On a fresh Kubuntu 10.04 install after installing python-keyring-kwallet
version 0.2-3 I ran this Python code:

    keyring.set_password('x', 'y', 'z')

which generated this exception:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/keyring/core.py", line 33, in set_password
    return _keyring_backend.set_password(service_name, username, password)
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/keyring/backend.py", line 97, in set_password
    return self.keyring_impl.password_set(service, username, password)
OSError: can't get access to dbus

Does the gnome backend work? It appears to have pretty much the same code that causes
this issue (assuming that it is in fact using the KDE backend here).

Thanks,

Do you still have the environment around to test with? Is there a dbus session
bus running when you get that failure?

Thanks,

Yep.

It would seem so:

benji@kubuntu:~$ ps aux | grep dbus | cut -c66-
dbus-daemon --system --fork
dbus-launch --autolaunch 5375d1ed127ac5597be0225d4caf691b
--binary-syntax --close-stderr
/bin/dbus-daemon --fork --print-pid 5 --print-address 7 --session
/usr/bin/ssh-agent /usr/bin/dbus-launch --exit-with-session x-session-manager
/usr/bin/dbus-launch --exit-with-session x-session-manager
/bin/dbus-daemon --fork --print-pid 5 --print-address 7 --session
grep --color=auto dbus

This bug has been indirectly fixed in keyring 0.5.0 by removing the custom KWallet integration and using the Python interface instead.
