KDE SSH Agent

Not sure if this this KDE related or Endeavor OS related, but get the following every time run ssh-add.

Could not open a connection to your authentication agent.

Running the following fixes the issue:

eval "$(ssh-agent -s)"

Is there a better permanent fix?

That is how it is supposed to work.

If you want ssh-agent to be running all the time you can use a systemd service as described in the arch wiki.

Thanks.
