the openpty() test uses AC_TRY_RUN() but does not provide fallback code when cross-compiling the etc_default_login test has some code to handle cross-compiling, but it is placed at the wrong location so it fails as well
Created attachment 1059 [details] openssh-4.2_p1-cross-compile.patch
I think those are already fixed in -current?
i checked version 4.2p1 and couldnt seem to find configure.ac in the anoncvs ... but you're right, the latest snap has both of these fixed sorry for the noise
Well thanks anyway. There's apparently a problem with the anoncvs server that can't be fixed for some time. If you really need cvs ops, you can rsync the cvsroot from mindrot and do the ops locally (see http://www.mindrot.org/portable-openssh.html#rsync, the entire thing is around 20MB).
Change all RESOLVED bug to CLOSED with the exception of the ones fixed post-4.4.
