Gnome-keyring is but one of the implementations that can act as a Secret Service,
while it makes sense to recommend that an implementation is installed,
it is not good that a particular implementation is forcibly required to be installed.

Please, consider changing

python-proton-keyring-linux/debian/control

Line 11 in 1534c2f

Depends: ${python3:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}, python3-proton-core, python3-keyring, python3-secretstorage, gnome-keyring

-Depends: ${python3:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}, python3-proton-core, python3-keyring, python3-secretstorage, gnome-keyring
+Depends: ${python3:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}, python3-proton-core, python3-keyring, python3-secretstorage

The suggestion to install the implementation would already appear (via python3-secretstorage dep):

$ apt-cache show python3-secretstorage | grep Suggests
Suggests: default-dbus-session-bus | dbus-session-bus, gnome-keyring | kwallet6 | libkf5wallet-bin (>= 5.97) | keepassxc-full, python-secretstorage-doc

Thanks!

+1 to this. On update to proton-vpn-gtk-app 4.14.0-1, this package gets added as a mandatory dependency, and gnome-keyring got forcibly installed on my system. Not sure why this package/gnome-keyring is suddenly a requirement, as rolling back to 4.13 for proton-vpn-gtk-app allows uninstall of this dependency/gnome-keyring.

No problems with this being a dep of the gtk app, but pretty screwy that gnome-keyring is, and I have no desire to have it on my system, so if not rectified I will probably stop using.

+1 to this.
Also, for anyone else who is equally fed-up with this and doesn't want to downgrade the package, forcibly removing gnome-keyring from my systems has not broken any functionality, but YMMV
