[Bug 1968876] Re: ssh-agent: Error connecting to agent: Connection refused

[David Michael Pick]

I have been having the same problem without the involvement of git.

Raspberry Pi 4, 4GB, upgraded to Ubuntu 22.04 from 21.10. Same commands 
worked with 21.10 that fail with 22.04.

Boot machine. Login, and this starts an agent, but I'm not sure if it's 
actually ssh-agent or if it's the Gnome version. Open terminal window. 
add keys to the agent using ssh-add. Open another terminal window and 
try to use slogin to another machine. Get the eerror message.

The very first time it happened a popup appeared about the ssh-agent 
crashing and asking if I wanted to send a diagnostic dump to Ububtu. I 
dis. Didn't get asked this subsequent times.
