Comment 6 for bug 462624

same problem here; even though because I am using screen the error message does not appear until after I abort svn by pressing ctrl-c. solved problem by doing "chmod 000 /usr/lib/gnome-keyring/gnome-keyring-ask".

unfortunately it seems to be the current spirit of ubuntu to break things that used to work for many years just for the sake of implementing a feature (gnome-keyring) that brings no advantages to the user. the list of files having mode 000 on my system is growing: hwclock, nautilus, console-kit-daemon, pulseaudio
