At least the GnuPG part of this bug has been fixed:

- upstream[1][2][3] since gnome-keyring_3.17.4 together with
  pinentry_0.9.5 and gnupg_2.1.6

- in Debian[4] since gnome-keyring_3.16.0-3

[3] <https://mail.gnome.org/archives/distributor-list/2015-August/msg00000.html>
[4] <https://bugs.debian.org/760102>

This means that the bug should already been fixed in stretch
(gnome-keyring_3.18.3-1, pinentry_0.9.7-5 and gnupg_2.1.11-6).

For jessie, you still need to avoid gnome-keyring-gpg and -ssh startup
as explained in the README.Debian, either with 'Hidden=true' as
explained on Simon Josefsson's blog[5] or, better, with (works on Ubuntu
14.04 as well, gnome-keyring_3.10.1-1ubuntu4):
=====
$ mkdir -p ~/.config/autostart
$ echo 'X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=false' \
  | cat /etc/xdg/autostart/gnome-keyring-gpg.desktop - \
  >>~/.config/autostart/gnome-keyring-gpg.desktop
$ echo 'X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=false' \
  | cat /etc/xdg/autostart/gnome-keyring-ssh.desktop - \
  >>~/.config/autostart/gnome-keyring-ssh.desktop
=====
