Hi,

after building 4-current (cvsupped yesterday) I'm using OpenSSH now. I'm
starting my X11 session with ssh-agent and using ssh-add in my
.xsession. Unfortunally there's no ssh-askpass build in 4-current (and
ssh-add is build with
'#define SSH_ASKPASS_DEFAULT "/usr/X11R6/bin/ssh-askpass"') so I'm not
able to add my identity to the ssh agent at login time, I have to do it
manually from a xterm.

At the moment I'm starting everything ssh related with absolute paths
(ssh 1.2.27), but I'm not satisfied with this solution (and I didn't
want to put /usr/local/bin in front of my $PATH, I prefer to have it at
the end).

Does someone plan to fix this (e.g. build ssh-askpass conditionally on
the presence of libX11 / of a variable in make.conf)?

Bye,
Alexander.
