Bug Description

I have a "bare" system with no session management, "desktop environment" and the like. Polly will only launch if started from a terminal, seemingly because it has to ask for a password to the keyring, and can only do so from a text prompt. (I guess in Gnome or whatever, a dialog box pops up?)

If I use the Openbox Applications menu to try to launch Polly, Polly seems to terminate immediately.

The version reports as "Polly 0.93.11 (pre-alpha 3.11)"

You need to install a keyring that the python-keyring library supports. For example, GNOME-Keyring (which, despite its name, depends on a fairly small set of dependencies).

The next version is going to be more friendly with respect to this issue.
