 Debian #339785
 GNOME #500216
 Spawn gnome-settings-daemon with g_spawn instead of DBus.
+
+The underlying problem fixed by this change is that gnome-settings-daemon
+handles the configured multimedia keys shortcuts which can launch any app;
+these apps will inherit gnome-settings-daemon's env, which might miss things
+such as GnuPG or SSH agent information.  Spawning instead of using dbus
+activation gnome-settings-daemon makes it possible to inherit the env vars.
+The better long term solution might be in the gnome-session dbus rewrite, which
+might mean apps are started by gnome-session, but this hasn't been confirmed.
