SSHKit belongs on the client machines driving the SSH connection, not on the servers to which you connect. If you're running SSHKit *on* a server, along side Capistrano (also not typically installed on servers) then it'll be fine. Various versions of Capistrano 3 have various requirements on various version of SSHKit, but Capistrano two is unaware of SSHKit and it will not interfere.
