openssh 1:5.7p1-1ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

openssh (1:5.7p1-1ubuntu1) natty; urgency=low

  * Resynchronise with Debian experimental.  Remaining changes:
    - Add support for registering ConsoleKit sessions on login.
    - Drop openssh-blacklist and openssh-blacklist-extra to Suggests.
    - Convert to Upstart.  The init script is still here for the benefit of
      people running sshd in chroots.
    - Install apport hook.
    - Add mention of ssh-keygen in ssh connect warning.
    - Make openssh-server recommend ssh-import-id.

openssh (1:5.7p1-1) experimental; urgency=low

  * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.org/txt/release-5.7):
    - Implement Elliptic Curve Cryptography modes for key exchange (ECDH)
      and host/user keys (ECDSA) as specified by RFC5656.  ECDH and ECDSA
      offer better performance than plain DH and DSA at the same equivalent
      symmetric key length, as well as much shorter keys.
    - sftp(1)/sftp-server(8): add a protocol extension to support a hard
      link operation.  It is available through the "ln" command in the
      client.  The old "ln" behaviour of creating a symlink is available
      using its "-s" option or through the preexisting "symlink" command.
    - scp(1): Add a new -3 option to scp: Copies between two remote hosts
      are transferred through the local host (closes: #508613).
    - ssh(1): "atomically" create the listening mux socket by binding it on
      a temporary name and then linking it into position after listen() has
      succeeded.  This allows the mux clients to determine that the server
      socket is either ready or stale without races (closes: #454784).
      Stale server sockets are now automatically removed (closes: #523250).
    - ssh(1): install a SIGCHLD handler to reap expired child process
      (closes: #594687).
    - ssh(1)/ssh-agent(1): honour $TMPDIR for client xauth and ssh-agent
      temporary directories (closes: #357469, although only if you arrange
      for ssh-agent to actually see $TMPDIR since the setgid bit will cause
      it to be stripped off).
  * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
    http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.7p1-gsskex-all-20110125.patch:
    - Add GSSAPIServerIdentity option.
  * Generate ECDSA host keys on fresh installations.  Upgraders who wish to
    add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
    /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run 'ssh-keygen
    -q -f /etc/ssh/sshd_config -N "" -t ecdsa'.
  * Build-depend on libssl-dev (>= 0.9.8g) to ensure sufficient ECC support.
  * Backport SELinux build fix from CVS.
  * Rearrange selinux-role.patch so that it links properly given this
    SELinux build fix.

openssh (1:5.6p1-3) experimental; urgency=low

  * Drop override for desktop-file-but-no-dh_desktop-call, which Lintian no
    longer issues.
  * Merge 1:5.5p1-6.
