Keyring locked

[Greg A]

I'm using the PPA, version 10.10.4 is installed.

Whenever I startup Gmailwatcher it "doesn't work". I believe this is because my keyring is not unlocked, as I have autologin enabled.

Starting from a terminal gives me the following (Appears similar to #611963):

** Message: secret service operation failed: Cannot get secret of a locked object
Keyring locked, waiting.

You can tell gmailwatcher to Not use keyring. You're password will not be stored in plain text.

Might help others.

Having changed gmailwatcher not to use the keyring the program crashes on startup:
