Sorry for the noise, just found the problems myself... 1. The password for the web-interface also works for the SSH login (somehow I assumed only key-based authentication would work, don't know why) 2. Contrary what the docs say in the SSH-key dialog at http://alioth.debian.org, only RSA keys are accepted, and you only find out when you look at the error message that gets generated in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys... Perhaps it would be nice adding that to mentioned Wiki page? So, SSH-related problem solved. I have another question though: The team-policy says I should update the appropriate meta-packages. However, in the case of ViennaCL it is not quite clear which meta-packages would directly benefit from it. It could be used in mathematics, physics, robotics, astronomy, chemistry, you name it, but it wouldn't be an application or even a topic-specific library, it is rather a library on which you could base such applications or libraries.
