upstart configuration for user launches an extra ssh-agent

This does not affect "gnome-session", but "openssh-client"... I'm pretty sure I've said so before posting.

Also, this does not seem to be related to Bug #959506, as this one is pretty old, and my config used to work before 13.10.
It seems however to relate somehow loosely to Bug #1181510.
I'm adding a comment in both Bugs

I've also added two lines to protect the killing part, which I did not mention above. Don't know whether it's useful or not.

By the end of pre-start:
    initctl set-env --global SSH_AGENT_LAUNCHER=/usr/share/upstart/sessions/ssh-agent.conf

By the beginning of post-stop:
    [ "$SSH_AGENT_LAUNCHER" = /usr/share/upstart/sessions/ssh-agent.conf ] || exit 0

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Using:
grep -q "^use-ssh-agent$" /etc/X11/Xsession.options || { stop; exit 0; }
To detect whether or not to launch the ssh agent doesn't seem to make sense to me, since if "use-ssh-agent" is true then ssh-agent will be setup by /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90x11-common_ssh-agent (and later launched), so there doesn't seem to be a need for an upstart script here.

Down again after last upgrade.

Here's my ssh-agent.conf

This bug was fixed in the package openssh - 1:6.6p1-1

---------------
openssh (1:6.6p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Apply various warning-suppression and regression-test fixes to
    gssapi.patch from Damien Miller.
  * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.6,
    LP: #1298280):
    - CVE-2014-2532: sshd(8): when using environment passing with an
      sshd_config(5) AcceptEnv pattern with a wildcard, OpenSSH prior to 6.6
      could be tricked into accepting any environment variable that contains
      the characters before the wildcard character.
  * Re-enable btmp logging, as its permissions were fixed a long time ago in
    response to #370050 (closes: #341883).
  * Change to "PermitRootLogin without-password" for new installations, and
    ask a debconf question when upgrading systems with "PermitRootLogin yes"
    from previous versions (closes: #298138).
  * Debconf translations:
    - Danish (thanks, Joe Hansen).
    - Portuguese (thanks, Américo Monteiro).
    - Russian (thanks, Yuri Kozlov; closes: #742308).
    - Swedish (thanks, Andreas Rönnquist).
    - Japanese (thanks, victory).
    - German (thanks, Stephan Beck; closes: #742541).
    - Italian (thanks, Beatrice Torracca).
  * Don't start ssh-agent from the Upstart user session job if something
    like Xsession has already done so (based on work by Bruno Vasselle;
    LP: #1244736).

  [ Matthew Vernon ]
  * CVE-2014-2653: Fix failure to check SSHFP records if server presents a
    certificate (bug reported by me, patch by upstream's Damien Miller;
    thanks also to Mark Wooding for his help in fixing this) (Closes:
    #742513)
