i've tested it again, and neither is libpam-keyring (to be precise,
libpam-gnome-keyring, which is the only package to provide
libpam-keyring) necessary nor sufficient to provide the
org.freedesktop.secrets service. itself, it recommends gnome-keyring,
which really provides the necessary services.

it can be argued whether or not a transitive recommendation is
sufficient here. personally, i'd add it to Recommends and evaluate if
libpam-keyring still adds to the package (maybe functionality was moved
between there and gnome-keyring, i'm not knowledgeable there).

best regards and thanks for your fast response
