I upgraded gnome-keyring to 3.10.1-1ubuntu4.1 from trusty-proposed in a virtual machine.
Before upgrading and rebooting, this bug was occurring. After rebooting, the bug was gone. I rebooted about 5 times and tested ssh keys using gnome-terminal (started both from the Dash and from Ctrl+Alt+T) and it worked every time. So, for me it's fixed! ** Tags removed: verification-needed ** Tags added: verification-done -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-keyring in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1271591 Title: upstart job race prevents gnome-keyring from being ssh agent Status in “gnome-keyring” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “gnome-keyring” source package in Trusty: Fix Committed Bug description: I expect gnome-keyring to be the ssh authentication agent when I am logged in to a graphical session. Because of what I suspect is a race in upstart jobs, I believe SSH_AUTH_SOCK is being overwritten after gnome-keyring starts. Perhaps the gnome-session job needs to make sure the ssh-agent job is finished?
