Bug#647561: seahorse: asked for new keyring password every time

Package: seahorse
Version: 3.0.2-1
Severity: normal

Seahorse keeps asking me for a new keyring password every time I try to access
something in the keyring.  For example when I start Synaptic.  I type in a new
keyring password but it won't remember it.  The next time I start Synaptic for
example, it will ask for a new keyring password.

Evolution also keeps asking for my imap and smtp passwords which it used to get
from the keyring.

I try to save my imap password in Mail Notification Properties and I get a
popup error saying the password could not be saved to the keyring.

There is something wrong with the whole keyring process.

I tried deleting all files in the directory .gnome2/keyrings and letting gnome
rebuild the keyring but that didn't help any.
