Package: ssh2
Version: 2.0.13-5.1
Severity: important
When I try to log in to a remote system with ssh2, it hangs while trying
to request X11 forwarding. I've tried all combinations of the local and
remote machines both running and not running X; the results are the same.
Both local and remote are running the same version of ssh, too.

debug: Host key found from the database.
bcwhite's password:
debug: Ssh2/ssh2.c:304/client_authenticated: client_authenticated
debug: Requesting X11 forwarding with authentication spoofing.
At this point, the connection just hangs indefinitely. I can't CTRL-C
or CTRL-Z it, either. I have to go to another window and kill the
process manually.
If I give the "-x" option to disable X forwarding, everything works fine.

I've marked this bug as "important" because X11 forwarding is one of
the primary features of ssh.

Hi!
Ssh2 was removed from the Debian archive this morning. It's
replacement, openssh (ssh package), does not seem to be affected
by this bug; therefore, I'm closing it.
Kind regards,
Bas Zoetekouw.
