Heh, I just finished building the ssh deb using apt-get source -b ssh.
What a pain. I ended up having to download libwrap-dev, libpam-dev,
libssl-dev. Actually, the real pain was figuring out how to get
apt-install to _not_ build the gnome ask-pass package. I don't have any
gnome libraries on my machine and don't want them. I ended up having to
manually edit the control and rules files. I'm sure that doing a
./configure; make; make install, would have been easier but I wanted to
do it the debian way. I'm also sure there is an easier way to control
what package gets built. I'm not sure what it is though :). Anyway, my
ssh is running again in unstable.
