Package: gnome-keyring
Version: 2.22.0-2
Severity: normal
gnome-keyring apparently supports SSH agent functionality now. While
a somewhat interesting feature, it managed to break my working
libpam-ssh setup, which has the advantage of working in sessions that
don't involve logging into GNOME. It also created ~/.ssh/*.keystore
files for my private keys. Please add a NEWS.Debian item telling
people about this change, and please document how to disable it (set
the gconf key /apps/gnome-keyring/daemon-components/ssh to false).
