Title:
  seahorse fails with concurrent ssh connections

Status in “gnome-keyring” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: seahorse

  I regularly perform parallel ssh connections to administer multiple
  hosts, using RSA authentication + a ssh agent. When using seahorse's
  ssh agent, the agent seems to fail when performing multiple
  simultaneous connections. Specifically, some connections are unable to
  contact the agent, causing openssh to try password authentication
  instead. However, the agent doesn't crash -- it's just some of the
  concurrent clients aren't able to connect.

  If it helps for reproducing, I use the parallel-ssh package. The
  problem seems to happen fairly reliably when using parallelism of 8 or
  more.

  This is seahorse 2.26.1-0ubuntu1 on jaunty+updates. I've also tried a
  backported 2.27.90-0ubuntu1 from karmic with the same problem.

  Using a regular ssh-agent instead of seahorse (e.g. by removing
  60seahorse-plugins from /etc/X11/Xsession.d) is a reasonable
  workaround for me but I thought I'd report the seahorse bug anyway.

  This sounds superficially like bug #352154, but I suspect it's
  unrelated both because seahorse doesn't crash, and because I'm not
  running a gpg-agent.
