I am using Intrepid, and the annoying password dialog appears when I try to push changes to a github repo. The problem is that the dialog does not accept any clipboard pasting or dropping, which means I have to type in my passphrase (which is long) by hand. I managed to get rid of this dialog in Hardy, and it came back after I upgraded to Intrepid. It should be easy to get rid of, and there is no obvious way to do that. There are a couple of methods I have seen on various forums, such as adding "purposes=" to the "~/.ssh/id_rsa.keystore" file, and a gconf option, and neither of them have worked on my system. This is stopping me using git to push remotely on gnome (and I don't want to use KDE).
