Yes Bullseye, you can close this ticket.  Something went wrong during
the upgrade.  I re-installed it now it is working.

Title:
  X-forwarding no longer works

Status in openssh package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I operate a Linux based Internet hosting service that includes Linux
  shell servers of various flavors.  I control these from home using
  Ubuntu 21.10 presently.  Until recently, X-forwarding has worked from
  all but ancient Redhat 6.2 servers.  I recently upgraded my debian
  shell server to Bullet, and after the upgrade ssh -X debian.eskimo.com
  from my workstation nanook.eskimo.com ceased to function.  It simply
  says "Cannot open DISPLAY".  At the time, all the others continued to
  work.  Today, when I went to do upgrades, now ssh -X is forwarding
  across the board to all flavors of Linux.  I did an ssh -V, nothing
  obvious wrong in the connection.
