it's back again in 12.3-RC1 (or never got fixed?) !

I'm using 12.3-RC1 plus updates and run XFCE4.

    /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --daemonize --login

gets started and it's loading offering all my ssh-keys, which is a no-go!

when debugging my ssh-agent problems, I found the hint in some discussions to rename/remove nome-keyring-daemon (or remove execute permission).

this worked fine for me -- until bug #805048:
NetworkManager needs gnome-keyring-daemon to ask for wifi passphrases :-((

so gnome-keyring-daemon is back in businees, and trashes my ssh usage:-(

looking for other solutions I found e.g.
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1655397

but

     sudo gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory --type bool --set /apps/gnome-keyring/daemon-components/ssh FALSE
does not help.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-keyring/+bug/932177/comments/20

does not work either for me, the key daemon still loads/offers all ssh keys (output of "ssh-add -l").

for now I've hacked the gnome-keyring-daemon to garble the path to my keys:

diff <( strings /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon~ ) <( strings /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon )
9543c9543
< ~/.ssh
---
> ~/@ssh

but of corse that's not the way to go:-(

so my question for running XFCE4:

how can I disable the ssh-agent functionality for gnome-keyring-daemon these days ???

thanks for the real[tm] solution!!!
