Hi, I finally dug into the issue with details to be seen in OI IRC weblog. The short outcome seems to be that the ssh-agent wraps the start of mate-session somehow, and as part of the session the gnome-keyring-daemon manager starts and hijacks the SSH_AUTH* envvars. After some back and forth, I just did a `chmod -x /usr/bin/gnome-keyring*` and restarted X11 e.g. `systemctl restart lightdm` and got back the ssh-agent provided variables in env, so with my ~/.xsession including a /usr/bin/ssh-add </dev/null & to ask for key password as soon as I log in (not when I first want to use it), and with ssh-askpass-zenity being the default (symlinked) implementation of password input for the job, things again work as I'm used to ;) I'd let someone smarter with X11 to figure out why gnome keyring manager is so rude when another ssh-agent is already active. Nothing seems broken as result of a quick inspection, e.g. the applets which want root password (nwam....) still work.
