Which desktop environment? GNOME shell replaced ssh-agent with the
GNOME keyring daemon some time ago, though I don't know when. Seems
like ages. It's a bit sad, since the keyring daemon doesn't support
newer key types.
Fedora Rawhide, GNOME, GNOMEShell
Anyway, is the problem that you don't see the ssh-agent process
(which
is normal) or that there isn't any agent available?
Really that there is no SSH key agent running that applications can
query. In a sense I do not care which application does this as long as
one does. It seems like the default should be gnome-keyring-daemon.
