Hm, I *again* checked out and recompiled everything, and this time made sure
all related packages from the system that might interfere are removed.

I even have:

[[[
[auth]
password-stores = gnome-keyring
]]]

Still no Gnome Keyring, and now svn asks the security question, whether to
store unencrypted, twice!

Maybe it's got something to do with the Gnome version??
I'm on ubuntu intrepid, all updates installed.

Otherwise, it seems to me there are some more bugs to be found...
