I don't think you need gnome-keyring.  KDE uses KWallet, doesn't it?

Evolution just speaks to the "org.freedesktop.secrets" D-Bus interface,
and both gnome-keyring and KWallet export that interface [1].  I don't
know what happens when they're both installed and compete for the name.

That comes from GTK+ itself.  It's irritating enough that it hard-codes
a GNOME-specific service name, but then also spews that.  Nothing I can
do about it, but it's harmless and safe to ignore.
