    daemon: Stop exporting the $GNOME_KEYRING_CONTROL env variable · 2ca51a0a
    Stef Walter authored
    In cases where we're using $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR to create a predictable
    control socket directory, stop setting the $GNOME_KEYRING_CONTROL
    environment variable.
    
    Note that we don't use the $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR fallback. This is because
    two of our clients don't link in GLib, both the pam and pkcs11
    modules. Getting involved in the whole tree of fallback possibilities
    for how to resolve $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is not something I'm interested
    in duplicating.
    
    So instead what we do is if $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is not set, we fall back
    to using the old $GNOME_KEYRING_CONTROL environment variable.
    
    We use the GLib logic when looking for XDG_RUNTIME_DIR. The variable
    is considered present even when empty.
