svn+ssh Ubuntu 8.10 gnome-keyring regression
Linux Ubuntu Intrepid 8.10 upgrade broke my
repository access via svn+ssh.
Symptoms were very mysterious and I clobbered
my source code repository before resolving it.
Symptoms:
UUID mismatch between repository and working copy. Only occurs when multiple svn+ssh
repositories are used.
Problem occurs when running within X
windows, but not when using a primitive
Linux console (i.e. ctl-alt-F5).
The last tunnel that is created is used,
instead of the one referenced by
"-t -i id_rsa...". Tunnel per-user state survives sshd restarts and Linux reboot.
/var/log/auth.log has revealing message.

Thanks. Are there specific launchpad bugs you can point us at?
