Bug Description

Previously when I opened a terminal and made an SSH connection I would get pop-up dialog asking to unlock the public key with the passphrase.

Well, the dialog is no longer appearing. I can unlock the public key in the terminal, but the unlocked key is not saved in the keyring.

Correction:

$ ssh-add

does add it to the keyring. I just had to add my current key by name.

$ ssh-add id_rsa.1

Still no dialog, though.
