ERROR:root:Could not find any typelib for GnomeKeyring from python-keyring when gir1.2-gnomekeyring-1.0 is missing

[Philip Muškovac]

On my Kubuntu system something recently pulled in gnome-keyring. Now, every time I run a launchpadlib script I get

ERROR:root:Could not find any typelib for GnomeKeyring

from python-keyring I guess.
The error/warning went away once I installed gir1.2-gnomekeyring-1.0, so I guess something should at least recommend that.

This is just a warning you can ignore. Python-keyring tries to do "from gi.repository import GnomeKeyring" to check which backends are available.

I'll look if we can disable stdout when checking that.

Added a fix for this to my pull request: <https://bitbucket.org/kang/python-keyring-lib/pull-request/33/>.

This bug was reintroduced in 2.0, after https://bitbucket.org/kang/python-keyring-lib/diff/keyring/backends/Gnome.py?diff2=55e8cb1e1848&at=2.0

With 1.6.1 it works, with 2.0/2.0.1 it's broken again.

[Pavel Sedlák (psedlak)]

Already fixed in 2.1 as per https://bitbucket.org/kang/python-keyring-lib/issue/115/error-root-could-not-find-any-typelib-for#comment-6139490
