>Description:
Install of /usr/ports/security/ssh fails if ssh2 is installed first.
During 'make install' the following error occurs:

===>   Generating temporary packing list
Generating a secret host key...
illegal option -- f
Usage: ssh-keygen [options] [key1 key2 ...]

Where `options' are:
 -b nnn         Specify key strength in bits (e.g. 1024)
 -t dsa         Choose the key type (only dsa available).
...
etc.

No error is reported further.
The reason is obviously that ssh-keygen is a hardlink to ssh-keygen2
at that moment.

>How-To-Repeat:
Freshly install freebsd 4.0-release on a new machine/harddisk ;)
Then first do a 'make all' 'make install' in /usr/ports/security/ssh2
and THEN in /usr/ports/security/ssh.

>Fix:
Patch(?) ports/security/ssh to not use any executable that doesn't
end on a '1'.
