Hi, develop members:
When I read the document INSTALL in order to install
OpenSSH-3.7.1p1, I noticed that MANY obsolete descriptions
do remain still now.
(1) The configure options '--with-kerberos4' and
'--with-afs' were obsoleted because Kerberos IV support
and AFS support were removed; however the descriptions
remain still now.
(2) The configure option '--with-kerberos5' for Kerberos V
support is missing.
(3) The configure option '--with-ipv4-default' was
obsoleted; however the description remains in the
document Ver.1.56. (It is deleted in Ver.1.58, which is
attached to snapshot-20030921.)
(4) The option '--enable-gnome-askpass' is not described in
the output of "configure --help". If this option had
been already obsoleted, the description in INSTALL
should be deleted, too.
(5) CFLAGS="-a" LDFLAGS="-s" LIBS="-lx"
./configure
is equivalent to
./configure --with-cflags="-a" --with-ldflags="-s"
--with-libs="-lx"
The following is the patch against *Ver.1.58* for solving
the above problems (1), (2), (4), and (5).

# The new version in which the above patch is applied is
# defined as 1.59 in the below...
It may be better for the order of the options mentioned in
the INSTALL document to correspond with that of the output
of './configure --help'. I put the new version (1.60) at
http://skeleten.shillest.net/tmp/INSTALL_1.60
# 1.58: The version attached in snapshot-20030921
# 1.59: The above patch was applied against 1.58
# 1.60: The same orders (changed from 1.59)
I hope the INSTALL document is updated before the new release.
