Of course they should! My only concern about distributing the stock system with built-in ssh is not getting the most current version. As far as I can recall ssh 1.2.27 replaces sprintf with snprintf, and previous versions fix bugs. That alone may be a good reason for not keeping a separate development tree of ssh within the project. Maybe the best solution would be to have sysinstall ask for it at the end of the installation procedure, just like it does with Apache or NFS. And then, of course, install the *real* package. > In the interests of minimising bloat we could balance its inclusion by > deleting something like, say, uucp. > (:-) for the uucps users) I'm a proud UUCP user, but I wouldn't mind having to install it as a package, if the final result will be the same (modulo a couple of sed -e "s@usr@usr/local@g" maybe).
