Bug#261363: ssh package sets pam service name
Package: ssh
Version: 3.8.1p1-3
Hello. I really wonder why the Debian package auf OpenSSH sets
SSHD_PAM_SERVICE:
debian/rules: $(MAKE) -C build-deb -j 2 ASKPASS_PROGRAM='/usr/bin/ssh-askpass' CFLAGS='$(OPTFLAGS) -g -Wall -DLOGIN_PROGRAM=\"/bin/login\" -DLOGIN_NO_ENDOPT -DSSHD_PAM_SERVICE=\"ssh\" -DSSH_VERSION="\"$(SSH_VERSION)\""' SSH_KEYSIGN='/usr/lib/ssh-keysign')
I am not sure, but I would guess that I am not the only one liking the
default (!) behaviour of OpenSSH, which makes ssh chose the PAM
service name according to argv[0]. I mean, even if I am the only one:
why does the Debian package try to make packages less flexible than
and less consistent with the upstream version?
Thanks,
Moritz
