SSH-1.2.3-9.3 Building from source package.



Hi,

I'm trying to build ssh-1.2.3-9.3 from a souce package on a Potato
box. (Reasons for using source package are optimization, control over
./configure flags, etc). The box is to be used for server applications,
and does not have X or GNOME libraries, which the build process is
looking for.  ./debian/rules [build] works but ./debian/rules binary
fails. I've attempted to modify debian/rules to not build the Perl TK and
GNOME ssh-askpass components, but the build process still fails when not
finding them. I was told to remove the gnome-ssh-askpass and
perltk-ssh-askpass entries from debian/control but this results in "I have
no packages to build" errors when I try to ./debian/rules binary. Any
advice on building ssh-1.2.3-9.3 without the GNOME and Perl TK components
would be greatly appreciated. I'm currently lost in a sea of documentation
from maint-guide and package-manual.

Sorry if I'm sending this to the wrong list.
