[Bug 755898] Re: gnome-keyring-daemon not available in apps started from global shortcuts

 

I just made a little test : I changed the value of
/desktop/gnome/applications/terminal/exec in gconf from "gnome-terminal"
to "xterm" and now xterm has the right settings.

So the real problem is indeed that default keybindings and custom ones
are somewhat started differently by gnome (or its keybindings daemon)
and this is not fixed yet in Oneiric.

Title:
  gnome-keyring-daemon not available in apps started from global
  shortcuts

Status in “gnome-keyring” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “gnome-session” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

  When setting up a global shortcut via gnome-keybinding-properties
  (e.g. `gnome-terminal`), the application started from there will not
  have the environment set up to work with gnome-keyring-daemon
  ($SSH_AUTH_SOCK is missing).

  When searching for it, I've found an older Debian bug about it (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=339785):
    * 02_gsd-spawn.patch: spawn gnome-settings-daemon using g_spawn
       instead of DBus. Closes: #339785.
