Apps launched from messaging menu have incomplete environment

[Kim Alvefur]

Binary package hint: indicator-applet

I have Seahorse configured to always remember my passwhrase when logged in, but Applications like Evolution asks for it anyways. It works as it should when started from the main menu, Gnome Do or a terminal.

Also affects Gajim when manually added to /usr/share/indicators/messages/applications/

Tried dumping the output of `env` to a file gajims startup script and comparing to a normal shell env. As suspected, there is no $GPG_AGENT_INFO

thank you for your bug report, could you check if that's still an issue in lucid? starting empathy does use gnome-keyring correctly there

We'd like to figure out what's causing this bug for you, but we haven't heard back from you in a while. Could you please provide the requested information? Thanks!

Seems to work in Lucid beta 1.

Still broken in current karmic.
