I'd like to remove seahorse-daemon from seahorse, so it goes back to
being a key manager. There's a lot of work that needs doing on seahorse,
and having the daemon there complicates the code quite a bit.
seahorse-daemon exports a bunch of dbus interfaces which are used to
work with gnupg. As far as I know these dbus interfaces are not documented.
libcryptui uses seahorse-daemon's interfaces for a few things:
* Listing keys:
I've worked on gnupg support in libgcr (part of gnome-keyring) and
it can now list keys and pull in photos, and various other basic
things. I'd like to move libcryptui to use that to list keys
instead.
* Showing notifications:
It should just do this directly.
Eventually I'm hoping that libgcr can do everything that libcryptui
currently does in a better and simpler. At that point libcryptui would
be deprecated.
But for now, I'd just like to remove seahorse-daemon.
How does that sound?
Cheers,
Stef
