Is it possible to view the details of passwords stored in the keyring ?


Hi,
I'm running Debian 9.8 and I'm in need to deal with Gnome keyring. I have had a various versions of Debian in the past, but this is the first time that Debian forced me to work with keygring.

I need some info about how I can manage the passwords stored in gnome keyring.

What I want to do for now is,
1. listing the websites(URL or such) whose passwords are stored in the keyring.
2. Selectively removing stored passwords from the keyring.

I heard there is an utility called seahorse. Does it do what I mentioned above ?

Any inputs are appreciated.

Yes, seahorse will allow you to do this for application-based passwords.

Note however that website passwords will be retained by your browser(s).
