Bug#787776: regression: ssh-add loses comments on keys
Control: reassign -1 openssh-client
(ssh is just a metapackage for both the client and the server,
and is not necessarily installed).

I have a similar problem, but only for identities for which the
passphrase was already entered (which occurs when using ssh-add
