Bug ID: 13486
Summary: thunar, gvfs, ssh-agent -- gvfs does not use
xfce4-session spawned ssh-agent
Classification: Xfce

call dbus-update-activation-environment after starting ssh-agent
Allowing xfce4-session to manage starting ssh-agent for me resulted in gvfs
requests not making use of the ssh-agent.
Much of the issue is described in this Arch Linux bug report:
https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/46398
The workaround listed in the bug report does work. Specifcally:
dbus-update-activation-environment --systemd SSH_AUTH_SOCK
pkill gvfs
From this point on, gvfs request through Thunar successfully make use of the
ssh-agent.
However, I wanted to find a way to have everything working as expected
immediately after login without need to apply a workaround. The attached patch
appears to do so. Please consider including it.
