Hello, I also compiled a new OpenSSH by upgrading to the latest 10.2p1 version. During this task I discovered that there is a bug into the current cygport script for OpenSSH. If you open your openssh.cygport script, you will find this line:
DIFF_EXCLUDES="install.sh" but this line is wrong and it must be replaced with: DIFF_EXCLUDES="install-sh" Please note the "-" character instead of the dot "." between the words "install" and "sh" of the file name. The package includes a patch file that's probably just an hack for restoring the original "install-sh" and avoid cygport to create a patch file for something that it has been updated by autoreconf. So, all you you need to do is to fix this bug into the cygport script for openssh-10.0p1-1.src and you can safely delete the patch because it won't be useful anymore. Sincerely, Carlo Bramini.
