Answering my own question. Maybe worthy of a FAQ entry?
In order to use the gnome-keyring-daemon launched by
libpam-gnome-keyring and gdm3 (under debian at least) when using a
straight ~/.xsession file:
- open a "gnome" session with gdm
- launch a ssh session and unlock ssh key in the gnome-keyring dialog
while checking the "unlock ssh key at login" (or something like that),
- add in ~/.xsession:
eval $(gnome-keyring-daemon --start --components=ssh)
This configures the auto-launched gnome-keyring-daemon which otherwise
times out and exits.
- go back to your usual "system default" gdm session,
- your ssh key is unlocked,
