[Pkg-games-ubuntu] [Bug 1174162] [NEW] chrome-browser makes gnome-keyring-daemon use 100% cpu

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

After upgrading to 13.04, when starting the chromium browser, the gnome-
keyring-daemon runs at full CPU load and the chromium-browser has no
access to the stored passwords.

The issue seems to be known
(https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=98601). I'm
personally a bit surprised that Ubuntu 13.04 was released with such a
serious problem.

The frequently proposed workaround (e.g.
https://plus.google.com/110130355317073712944/posts/PckhFj5HUn4) doesn't
work because (a) there is no .gnome2/keyrings any more and (b) it's
rather inresponsible to store your passwords unencryted.

I found that killing gnome-keyring-server several times eventually gives you a working system.
