Bug description:
  [Impact]

  libpam-sshauth v0.1-1 (shipped with precise) used to support publickey
  authentication with ssh-agent.

  New version of this lib shipped with trusty and late has dropped this
  feature; which is related to upstream author (ltsp-upstream) switching
  to using libssh2 (was using libssh before).

  [Test Case]

  If users ssh to the server configured with libpam-sshauth using
  publickey authentication + ssh-agent, they're not granted access.

  A patched has been approved/merge upstream:
  https://code.launchpad.net/~benoit-guyard/ltsp/libpam-sshauth/+merge/273930

  [Regression Potential]

  A testfix has been provided, and positive feedbacks from the community
  has been given by the community to confirm the new package work under
  Trusty as expected: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/xenial/+source
