Description Horst H. von Brand 2008-12-12 22:08:11 UTC 
Description of problem:
After today's update of openssh-clients, ssh-add says:

  $ ssh-add
  Could not open a connection to your authentication agent.
  $ env | grep SSH
  SSH_ASKPASS=/usr/libexec/openssh/gnome-ssh-askpass
  $ pgrep ssh

ssh-agent isn't running at all.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
openssh-clients-5.1p1-4.fc11.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
  
Actual results:


Expected results:


Additional info:
Note that downgrading to the openssh before doesn't fix this either, so it probably is somewhere else.
Comment 1 Tomas Mraz 2008-12-12 22:18:49 UTC 
I'm not quite sure what should be the proper component, but definitely not openssh.
Comment 2 Matthias Clasen 2008-12-13 19:35:53 UTC 
gnome-keyring-daemon provides ssh-agent functionality in the gnome desktop.
Is it running ?
Comment 3 Horst H. von Brand 2008-12-14 01:00:07 UTC 
Nope, pgrep(1) doesn't find it.
Comment 4 Mamoru TASAKA 2008-12-15 05:16:44 UTC 
I am seeing the same problem.

On my system gnome-keyring-daemon is running but ssh-add exits
immediately with the message
"Could not open a connection to your authentication agent"

For me downloading gnome-keyring to 2.25.1-1.fc11
seems to work.

Created attachment 327047 [details]
dbus init later

This patch helps here

Should be in tomorrow's rawhide. Thanks.
