Title:
  gnome-keyring SRU breaks ECDSA keys

Status in gnome-keyring package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Previously I had been using ssh-add with ECDSA keys. (OpenSSH_6.6.1p1 Ubuntu-2ubuntu2, OpenSSL 1.0.1f 6 Jan 2014)
  After my system updated to gnome-keyring 3.10.1-1ubuntu4.1 (picking up the fix for #1271591) they stopped working:

      wry@onyx:~$ ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_ecdsa
      Enter passphrase for /home/wry/.ssh/id_ecdsa: 
      Error reading response length from authentication socket.
      Could not add identity: /home/wry/.ssh/id_ecdsa

  Downgrading to gnome-keyring 3.10.1-1ubuntu4 resolves the issue.

  This appears to be because gnome-keyring does not support ECDSA.
  https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=641082 refers.

  This means that the fix for #1271591 is an overall system regression
  for anybody who uses ECDSA keys.
