Override package: openssh

EL9

  • Version 8.7p1-34.3.el9_3.security.0.3
  • Based on 8.7p1-34.el9_3.3

Changes summary

  • Instead of linking against libsystemd, load it dynamically in a temporary child process to avoid polluting actual sshd's address space with that library and its many dependencies (shortens ldd sshd output from 28 to 20 lines)
  • Build without Kerberos support (further shortens ldd sshd from 20 to 13 lines)

Change log
