Some explanation: I switched to fingerprint authentication for normal
user, and it seems that using that does not unlock the login
keyring for gnome-keyring.

As soon as I disable fingerprint login (changing /etc/pam.d/gdm to its 
previous state it works.

The point is that there is NO way gnome-keyring should interfere with
subversion, and I don't see why it is doing that.

Best wishes
