I use KDE, really. Now I have ssh-agent and gnome-keyring fighting over keys, in KDE, while I did configure my system to use ssh-agent already. This is a bit irritating, and probably shouldn't occur. Why is gnome-keyring running in KDE? Is this a Freedesktop move or a (too lenient) dependency problem in Debian? Shouldn't there be some dependency conflict between the ssh-agent and gnome-keyring packages then? Or between libpam-ssh and gnome-keyring? This way it's causing a lot of confusion and undoing whatever configuration people have already done on their machines with ssh-agent or libpam-ssh. I'm disabling gnome-keyring ssh-agent functionality for now (for reference): # gconftool-2 --set -t bool /apps/gnome-keyring/daemon-components/ssh false ... but it might be best to let the package system clear up the confusion between some of the above mentioned packages by conflicting.
