When I started using my L5, I got lured into installing gnome keyring and Seahorse, only to discover I do not like this way of doing things. Because it seemed somewhat complicated to de-install the whole thing, I stuck to it. One of the apps I have in the keyring is Authenticator. I need Authenticator to manage two factor logins I need for my work.
This worked adequately until I upgraded to Crimson. Now, when I start the Authenticator, I get an error message telling me I have to check whether I have installed a Secret Service provider like gnome-keyring, and whether there is an unlocked default keyring.
I tried resolving this by following the instructions in this post: Flatpak issues with gnome keyring after Crimson update . But that didn´t work.
So, what I would like to do now, is get rid of the whole keyring thing, and start anew. I find remembering a couple of passwords much less of a hassle than managing the keyring(s).
Therefore my request: could somebody please help me safely uninstalling the keyring/Seahorse sh*t?
