Bug 848947

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #677065 +++

Description of problem:

When typing the passphrase for a gnupg key in the passphrase prompt (which seems to come from /usr/libexec/gnome-keyring-prompt), it does not have an option to forget the passphrase immediately (that is, to be prompted every time the private key is used, even if it comes just after the previous use). The closest it allows is to forget the passphrase after 1 minute (it will not accept 0 minutes, changing back to 1 minute).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

gnome-keyring-2.32.1-1.fc14.x86_64

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Encrypt something to your private gnupg key
2. Use gpg2 -d to try to decrypt it, in the default configuration
3. Try to set it to forget after 0 minutes in the prompt which opens
  
Actual results:

The best I can get is to forget the key after 1 minute.

Expected results:

I should be able to, in that dialog box, set the passphrase to be used only once and then immediately forgotten.

Additional info:

The default seems to be to forget only on logout, which is horrible for gnupg keys (it opens a window where the key can be used without the user's knowledge which can last for weeks, or even more if the user does not regularly applies security updates and logs out/reboot after them).

I recall that on previous Fedora releases (Fedora 13 at least) the default was to prompt every time.

This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained.  At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this 
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen 
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on 
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that 
version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
