[Bug 579207] [NEW] weird firefox behaviour when launched with ssh -X

[Paolo Benvenuto]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox

Launching firefox with ssh runs the local firefox instead of the remote
one. The command:

ssh -X remotepc firefox

doesnt' run firefox on remotepc, but on localhost.

Even if I "ssh -X remotepc gnome-terminal" and then, in the terminal, I
run firefox, the local firefox is run.

On the contrary all other application run properly on the remote host
when launched with ssh -X.
