The new gnome-keyring has a small change in behaviour. When you look for a key that doesn't exist it used to return a DENIED error. This is somewhat wrong (as it seems to indicate that there is a permissions error). This was changed to return OK, with a list of zero hits.
Bug for this: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=298871
This caused problems for at least network manager, where nm-applet would crash. We have a patch for this, so that will be fixed. However, this could affect other applications too. Has anyone seen any strange behaviour with the keyring?

Evolution was doing this for a while, but it doesn't seem to be having that problem anymore.
