Dear Maintainer,

Every time I reboot, the remote desktop password, as shown in the
remote desktop pop-up from the sharing settings panel, is changed to a
new, random value.

I have two laptops running Debian testing. This only happens on one of
them. I am not sure why, but this may be relevant:

* Both computers are configured with automatic login.
* On the computer that does not have the problem described above, I'm
  prompted immediately after reboot to enter my login keychain
  password because it wasn't unlocked during login (because of
  automatic login).
* On the computer that does have the problem described above, I'm not
  prompted to enter my login keychain password until I open the
  sharing control panel.

I have no idea why the two computers behave differently in this way
either.
