I was about to file a bug about the seahorse agent managing the SSH passphrase cache.
I used to have seahorse prompting for the SSH passphrase. For instance I typed "ssh myserver", and a dialog popped up automatically. Now I have to type "ssh-add" before I can use my passphrase. But the seahorse agent is still running: herve 6400 0.0 0.3 22296 6872 ? Ss 09:33 0:00 /usr/bin/seahorse-agent --execute x-session-manager herve 10198 0.0 0.3 45496 7676 ? Ss 12:22 0:00 seahorse-agent And in the seahorse application, my SSH key is listed. However, in the "Searhose Preferences" dialog, I think I lost a tab for managing the SSH key. Yet I have the version you mention: ii seahorse 2.21.4-0ubuntu1 A Gnome front end for GnuPG ** Changed in: seahorse (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Released => New -- [hardy] seahorse no longer manages ssh keys https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/174441 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
