Bug Description
I am about to sync python-keyring 1.4, which now uses python-
----------
Availablility: In Ubuntu since raring, arch:all.
Rationale: python-keyring recommends it.
Security: No known security history. The package doesn't actually store passwords, it is just a binding to a D-Bus protocol.
QA: Package is maintained by me in both upstream and Debian. No known bugs, no debconf questions.
Unfortunately the test suite can't be run at the moment, because GNOME Keyring (the only actually working Secret Service implementation) refuses to run in xvfb. As an alternative, one can mock a Secret Service server using python-dbusmock, but this is a non-trivial task.
Dependencies: only dependencies are python and python-dbus.
Maintenance: package is very simple, almost no maintenance required.
Background information: see http://
Looks mostly good. Simple enough, just a wrapper, no debian delta, no bugs, good packaging. My big concern is not running the tests, but I understand why from your description. I opened bug 1189172 for the tests during build. It would be really nice if that got fixed.
