Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xauth

SSH with X11 Forwarding enabled on both sides fails when xauth is not
installed.

This looks reasonable because X Forwarding needs xauth. But the user
should be warned that something failed and why. Now he's just wondering
what's wrong and why there's no DISPLAY variable.

** Affects: openssh (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Untriaged
         Status: Unconfirmed

** Changed in: xauth (Ubuntu)
Sourcepackagename: xauth => openssh
