Perhaps you don't understand. According to http://live.gnome.org/GnomeKeyring/Ssh (the only documentation I could find), ssh-add -d/-D deletes only *manually added* keys from gnome-keyring. There is no way to delete automatically added keys. This is the original bug, and it's still definitely present. So, for example, if you have two different automatically-loaded ssh identities associated with two different github accounts -- say for work and for home -- there's *no way* to switch between them. github takes the first one which matches, so you always appear as your 'home' user to github, with no way to upload things to work projects. Allowing ssh-add -d to apply to automatically-loaded keys (and ssh-add -t X to change the lifetime of automatically-loaded keys), would restore the behavior most users expect. --scott -- ( http://cscott.net/ ) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
