Public bug reported:
Starting xbindkeys via the provided Xsession startup script breaks ssh
agent support. The daemon is started before the gnome keyring and as a
result any terminal started via xbindkeys is lacking the proper
environment variables for interacting with the ssh agent. This bug has
been reported against Debian here: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=628654. I suspect the xbindkey users in this
report https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-
session/+bug/839444 are experiencing the same issue.
The presence of this startup script will break a number of previously
working configurations on upgrade. While it is a nice idea, it should
be seriously rethought or reworked.
