On modern GNU/Linux distributions ssh-askpass is installed in libexecdir: Arch Linux x11-ssh-askpass

Users most likely setup this environment variable in their desktop environment:

SSH_ASKPASS=/usr/lib/ssh/ssh-askpass

Fixes this issue for me:

execution denied by agent: Failed to get user approval: exec: "ssh-askpass": executable file not found in $PATH
