In my .bash_profile, I have:

SSHAGENT=/usr/bin/ssh-agent
SSHAGENTARGS="-s"
if [ -z "$SSH_AUTH_SOCK" -a -x "$SSHAGENT" ]; then
   eval `$SSHAGENT $SSHAGENTARGS`
   trap "kill $SSH_AGENT_PID" 0
fi

When I login to GNOME, I open an gnome-terminal and run "ssh-add", then type in my passphrase. This has worked for several Fedora releases, to save me the time and loss of sanity that typing my passphrase 400 times costs.

With all rawhide updates of gnome-keyring after 2.25.4.2-1.fc11, ssh-add no longer works. It says things about being unable to connect to the daemon.

I've tried gnome-keyring-2.25.90-4.fc11 and gnome-keyring-2.25.5-1.fc11. Only by downgrading to 2.25.4.2-1.fc11 can I restore the expected behavior.
