I can confirm the bug exits on systems using KDE Plasma.
On a machine using KDE Plasma without the gnome-keyring package installed,
Trying to connect to any database by any means, gives the following error:

"Error looking up password
The name org.freedesktop.secrets was not provided by any .service files"

The workaround to uncomment the following line in /user/bin/mysql-workbench does not work:
WB_NO_GNOME_KEYRING=1

Neither does
export WB_NO_GNOME_KEYRING=1

Additional info:
* package version: 8.0.17-1
* link to upstream bug report: https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=91836
the point they are missing there is that WB_NO_GNOME_KEYRING environment variable workaround is also not working.

Steps to reproduce:
1.Use a system with KDE Plasma
2.Do not install gnome-keyring
3.Uncomment "WB_NO_GNOME_KEYRING=1" in /user/bin/mysql-workbench
4.Open MySQL Workbench and try to connect to any database.

This is pretty old and stale. Still happening with latest pkgs?

I can confirm that this is still an issue for package version 8.0.33-1.
