Hi, I'm sorry for not replying to this bug report earlier when I adopted the Debian package of keychain. Also, yeah, I realize that the bug report was filed a long time ago and you may have moved on. Still... are you sure that `--inherit any` is what you want to use in this case? Would `--inherit any-once` not be better? When I try running keychain after a ~/.keychain/<hostname>-sh file has already been created, `--inherit any-once` looks at the file and uses the already running SSH agent. Again, sorry for not replying sooner!
