Are you ignoring me? There is a new version of OpenSSH 5.2p1, and BLFS
should upgrade to it.

No, we are not ignoring the fact that there is a new OpenSSH version.  Most of 
us have a few other things to do, like a job, and you shouldn't expect to see a 
response in less than 4 hours, as is the interval between your posts.

If you really want to be helpful, why don't you see if the current commands 
work 
with the new package. A review of the *key* changes in your own words would be 
helpful.  For instance, it looks like they added a capability to log errors to 
syslog instead of stderr with a -y option, but there don't appear to be any 
critical security issues.

I tend to be impatient, however. So keep that in mind.

And we tend to ignore impatient people who are unwilling/unable to help 
contribute
to the books or support thereof.  So keep that in mind.

Honestly, William, could you not just have noticed that the new release had 
been made,
test that the current book's instructions work with the new version and then 
instead
of demanding the already stretched editors upgrade instantly, at least be able 
to say:

"There's a new version of the OpenSSH package.  I've tested it using the latest 
book's
instructions and it works/doesn't work (delete/add more info as appropriate)."

For bonus points, assuming the book's current instructions work as-is, 
providing the
trivial patch against packages.ent would have gone a long way to boosting 
people's
impressions of you.

And now, given that, I hereby promise not to feed the troll anymore.

Matt.

I am not a troll, BTW. I am a austic guy.

But I will still help.
