Bug Description
ouroumov@Edge:~$ ssh -X ouroumov@10.42.0.1 pluma
ouroumov@
X11 forwarding request failed on channel 0
(pluma:30718): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
ouroumov@Edge:~$
This used to work in 16.04.
This is problematic because among other things, it prevents one from using x2x.
Note: in this experiment, the ssh command is executed on a Zesty client, and the target is a Xenial Server

Nervermind, something is wrong with the server I think, I've tried against a Trusty machine and it works fine.
