Confirming on Precise Pangolin, although with KDE, ssh-askpass and
ksshaskpass.  Not solved yet.

If I run ssh-askpass or ksshaskpass from the command line, it prints my
ssh key passphrase to stdout (!), derived from my password wallet.

Running ssh-add from the command line puts my key into the ssh-agent,
and I don't get asked for my passphrase any more.

I do have a public key file in ~/.ssh.  It's just that either ssh isn't
running ssh-askpass when it should, or kssh-askpass isn't submitting the
passphrase to ssh-agent, or ssh-agent isn't doing the right thing when
asked.

Is it ssh-agent or ssh that calls ssh-askpass?

Thanks
