With Xfce I can start the optional components of gnome-keyring-daemon
when I launch a session automagically, IOW with the login password or if
I don't do this, I can manually give the password when I start
Evolution, the reason it is installed for my Linux.

gnome-keyring-daemon --start --components=gpg
                             --components=secrets
                             --components=pkcs11
                             --components=ssh

some time ago I preferred to manually give the password, now I only
start the GPG agent, not the other three.

I don't like Xfce anymore, it became an annoying DE, but IMO it's easier
to use than GNOME 3.

Google for: change gnome 3 keyring password

There might be an entry for menu > System > Foo and perhaps Seahorse
does the job.
