Or would this be something worthy of an AUR package?
That would be the way to go. Arch only ships vanialla packages where possible; a third-party patch from some stranger's blog won't make it into the official package. Before going ahead with that, though, a note: I'm guessing you're concerned with security and privacy. That's good. However, I can virtually guarantee that the folks over at OpenBSD are much, much more serious about it than you or I, or the author of that blog you linked to. They've been paying attention to this from the beginning, and OpenSSH has been receiving regular updates to deal with it.[1] If you want to know what's being done about keeping OpenSSH up to snuff, follow it's development.[2] [1]:http://www.robesus.com/openssh-upgraded/ [2]:http://www.openssh.com/ -- "A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools." - Douglas Adams
