[Bug 839444] [NEW] Gnome uses two different ssh agents depending on how program is launched

 

Public bug reported:

If a shell is launched through the menu SSH_AUTH_SOCK will have a value
of the form /tmp/keyring-xxxxxx/ssh. If a keyboard shortcut is created
through System > Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts and that shortcut is
used to launch a shell, then SSH_AUTH_SOCK will have a value of the form
/tmp/ssh-xxxxx#####/agent.#####.

All shells in the session should by default be using the same ssh-agent.
