Bug#237021: ssh: I have similar problems

[Carsten Luedtke <acid_man@web.de>]

Package: ssh
Version: 1:3.8p1-1
Severity: normal
Followup-For: Bug #237021

I have similar problems in sid. I have roblems with gkrellm (directly forwarded 
without gkrellmd) and tkseti.

Gkrellm works expect for the seti plugin (not part of debian now). If I move my 
mouse over the plugin gkrellm + the ssh session will be killed. The output on a 
gnome-terminal:

acidman@mr-data:~$ gkrellm
The program 'gkrellm' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'.
    (Details: serial 3401 error_code 3 request_code 38 minor_code 0)
    (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
    that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
    To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
    option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
    backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
acidman@mr-data:~$

For tkseti i get the following output:

acidman@mr-data:~$ tkseti
X Error of failed request:  BadAtom (invalid Atom parameter)
    Major opcode of failed request:  20 (X_GetProperty)
    Atom id in failed request:  0x1b6
    Serial number of failed request:  11
    Current serial number in output stream:  11
acidman@mr-data:~$

This is since the last update of ssh on my sid box. The problems occure on my 
sarge box (mr-data). I have tried to connect with password- and pubkey-auth.
Maybe the new PAM-stuff in this version doesn't work as expected with 
X11-forwarding.
