Export Keyrings and FF password storage



Thanks for this interesting details.

I found my saved keyrings in ~/gnome2/keyrings/<name of the keyring>
and may blog about it after Xmas. As this file already exsist wouldn't it be easy to activate the "export" button in the GUI linked to this file ?
By the way as I'm interested to get into coding I'd like to know which language you use for the seahorse project. Is it C - like in most other Gnome projects?

Concerning Epiphany implementation and FF, I know concerning Gnome it's epiphany which has to be supported but if you take a look on the market, which Distro does actually use Epiphany ? Usually I would say Debian (as Ubuntu comes with FF by default), but even at our schools Debian LTSP system we're all using Iceweasel (which is free FF) for compability reasons.

So in my opnion it would be a very nice step not to implement epiphany onyl, but also create something like a FF plugin to make FF working with seahorse.

seahorse-maint gnome bugs is a fake email address to monitor all seahorse bugs on bugzilla.gnome.org.  Exporting secrets from gnome-keyring through seahorse is not yet supported, but you can just copy the keyring files from ~/.gnome2/keyring.  If I recall correctly there's been some discussion in the past of making FF store its secrets in gnome-keyring, but it's far easier to make Epiphany do it and that has been implemented at the latest webkitgtk hackfest.


Cheers,

Hi,

I've tried earlier on IRC but it looked like no one is in:
irc://irc.freenode.net/#Seahorse

But no problem - so I'll ask here.

As seahorse is installed with ubuntu by default I would like to have
seahorse managing all my passwords. Today I'm using it for all gnome
related secrets automaticly (e.g. FTP keys) and GPG encryption.

Some time earlier I've created a cellsheet containing all my accounts
and passwords - that's what seahorse or FF password manager does to (if
I add it manually in seahorse), the only problem is that there is no way
of exporting those keys.

I don't  know whether you as devs made a decision on this topic that
this might be an security issue, but what about a way exporting those
seahorse keyrings GPG encrypted ? Could be an option wouldn't it ?

And 2nd - what about FF integration, I know FireGPG does already use
seahorse for GPG things, but couldn't we have / write an addon or
something equal in FF which would allow saving secrets in seahorse
instead of FF's own keyring ?

Kindest regards
