gnome-keyring doesn't start gnome-keyring-ssh services

[Tessa]

Looking at the gnome-keyring packages in 17.10, I see the following files, which should be auto-starting the gnome-keyring ssh agent service:

/usr/lib/systemd/user/gnome-keyring-ssh.service
/usr/lib/systemd/user/graphical-session-pre.target.wants/gnome-keyring-ssh.service

As well, I seem to have a file in ~/.config/autostart/gnome-keyring-ssh.desktop which should also start gnome-keyring-daemon with the --components=ssh option.

However, in my actual GNOME session on Wayland, gnome-keyring-daemon is running with the following options:

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

and there are no SSH-AGENT related env vars set, and common ssh commands like ssh-add do not work.

I have the same problem, but with gpg-agent, which also reverse-depends on graphical-session-pre.target.

Also upgraded from 17.04 (clean install) to 17.10.

I'm not sure where when the --user graphical-session-pre.target is supposed to get started (and by whom), but it appears it never does. If I (re)start it manually, the gpg-agent does start, but then I have to log out and in again to get the SSH_AGENT and related env to work.

I tried a quick fix where I started the --user graphical-session-pre.target from a /usr/local/bin/gnome-session wrapper, but that was still too late (the envvars did not appear).
