anyone using ssh-3.2.9.1 non-commercial with unstable?
I have the non-commercial version of ssh-3.2.9.1 which I compile from source
on every machine I use, because it happens to be used by the server at
Suffolk (our sysadmin there likes it).
Here's what happened. Before, I would run ssh-add from a konsole shell, and it
would ask for a passphrase from stdin. And since i had the ssh-agent
installed properly (running infront of KDE) everything worked great.
But since the last upgrade, now, it pops up the "ssh-askpass" program, which
asks me for a passphrase or a passcode, but does not properly pass it back to
ssh-add (or ssh, for that matter).
Why does it do that? And how do I return it back to the way it was before? I
tried totally recompiling ssh from scratch and uninstalling openssh, but that
didn't help.
I suppose there is a script somewhere that runs ssh-askpass program in a
different way from how the ssh-3.2.9.1 one works - but how can I get ssh-add2
it to input the passphrase from stdin again?
