Description Christopher Snowhill 2018-08-29 00:13:31 UTC

On Kubuntu Desktop, KDE Plasma session fails to re-launch ssh-agent upon logging out and logging back in again. The SSH Agent environment variables for the previous session persist.

Package: plasma-desktop
Version: 4:5.12.6-0ubuntu0.1

This is probably not a KDE bug, but instead an Xsession script bug. Ah, yeah, the script in question is provided by x11-common. I'll see if I can report it to them.

Here's the workaround anyway, if anyone finds this incorrect bug report before I launch one against x11-common on Ubuntu.

Thanks for finding this! Please do report it to the xsession and Ubuntu folks.
