Bug Description

The other day I decided to remove my Ubuntu installation (which I had kept upgrading for some time) and did a fresh install of Ubuntu 14.10 64-bit, but this caused me this same old problem again: seahorse password prompt popping up every time although I change it to passwordless mode by starting seahorse, go to Passwords > Login, right click and choose "Change Password", enter old password (which is my user login password), Continue, leave both new password fields blank, Continue, and click OK.
