From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

reboot makes no difference. A new terminal gives the symptoms from the start.
I think I found a bad workaround. If I add this script to ~/.zshrc (because I'm not using bash but zsh)
then it works. But I think I'm still using the ssh agent which I actually should not be using. At least it's asking for the passphrase every time, which is nice. Even in the same terminal after ssh logout.
EDIT: The first two lines do the trick as well:
EDIT: If I change this SSH_AUTH_SOCK to ANYTHING else, it also works. So
/run/user/1000/gcr/ssh
does not work. I gave ample permission to this file, so that cannot be the problem. Perhaps BECAUSE this is a file. I think the SSH_AUTH_SOCK should point to a nonexisting file because then it makes temporarily a special file that it needs. Ok I'm just shooting in the dark.Minimise your windows one at a time and check that the gnome keyring hasn't popped up a dialog box sonewhere behind everything else that's asking you if it's okay to proceed.
No unfortunately not... Would've been a real pain.
Have you considered storing your keys unencrypted? In this case ssh doesn't need the agent or a password.
Yes it's not as secure, but for me it's good enough considering my systems at home are not doing anything important. If you have an encrypted home partition it's just as secure when your partition is unmounted.
