Public bug reported:
Steps to reproduce:
Open a terminal in Unity via the Launcher (or Dash) and ssh into
something. The ssh-agent unity keyring dialog will popup asking for the
passphrase. Everything's ok.
Now open a terminal via nautilus-open-terminal, for example right click
on Desktop -> Open in Terminal and run env. The SSH_AUTH_SOCK and
GPG_AGENT_INFO variables are not set. Other env vars are also slightly
different but this might not be necessarily a problem. The problem is
that trying to ssh somewhere cannot access the already running ssh-agent
(unity gnome keyring), ssh will prompt in CLI for the passphrase.
The expected behaviour (at least until 14.04 LTS) was that SSH_AUTH_SOCK
and GPG_AGENT_INFO were set when opening the terminal via nautilus "Open
in Terminal".
