Version: 2.5.5-3
Severity: normal

Thanks for packaging this most handy utility.  After upgrading to
keychain 2.5.5-3, the following behavior was encountered when launching
a login shell for the first time:

*** Begin sample output ***
KeyChain 2.5.5; http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/keychain/
Copyright 2002-2004 Gentoo Foundation; Distributed under the GPL

 * Found existing ssh-agent (7473)
 * Found existing gpg-agent (7452)
 * Adding 2 ssh key(s)...
ssh_askpass: exec(/usr/bin/ssh-askpass): No such file or directory
ssh_askpass: exec(/usr/bin/ssh-askpass): No such file or directory
 * Error: Problem adding; giving up
*** End sample output ***

This behavior is repeatable and was tested several times.  Keychain is
being invoked on the affected system via the user's .bash_profile as
shown in the sample script block for bash and zsh in keychain(1):

*** Begin .bash_profile excerpt ***
# Keychain usage
keychain id_rsa id_dsa 80B2D10A
    [[ -f $HOME/.keychain/$HOSTNAME-sh ]] && \
        source $HOME/.keychain/$HOSTNAME-sh
    [[ -f $HOME/.keychain/$HOSTNAME-sh-gpg ]] && \
        source  $HOME/.keychain/$HOSTNAME-sh-gpg
*** End .bash_profile excerpt ***

In case it matters, SSH_ASKPASS is not being set in the .bash_profile
script in question.  Manually calling ssh-add results in an appropriate
password prompt and the reuse of known ssh keys.  If I can provide any
further information or testing, please let me know.

This seems like it may be related to the fix for the issue that was
addressed in Bug #324950, though I have not played with the source
package to test that theory.  Once keychain has the ssh keys, an issue
with adding the GPG key is encountered, which I will report separately.
