[Karl-Philipp Richter <krichter722@xxxxxx>]

** Summary changed:

- ssh-add should print error message when entered key password is wrong
+ ssh-add should print error message when it fails

** Description changed:

- Currently the user has to check `echo $?` to figure out that the key
- hasn't been added and very likely assumes that it has been added in case
- the password was wrong and the key couldn't be added with `ssh-add`.
+ Currently only the case when the key password is wrong is covered (with
+ an error message), otherwise the user has to check `echo $?` to figure
+ out that the key hasn't been added and very likely assumes that it has
+ been.
