Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-keyring
I used to use seahorse as an ssh-agent, it allows me have my ssh keys
automatically unlocked on login, my passphrase being stored in the
keyring.
However since last upgrades in Hardy, it stopped working.
Seahorse can't be used anymore as an ssh-agent [1] as gnome-keyring is supposed
to provide one.
This is true, SSH_AUTH_SOCK is now a socket file owned by gnome-keyring-daemon,
but this doesn't seem to work as I have to enter my passphrase each time I
login in another computer.
[1] From the Seahorse NEWS file:
seahorse 2.21.3
---------------
* Remove SSH proxy since gnome-keyring now has a real SSH agent.
