RPM reports the dependency as this.. openssh-askpass requires
openssh-clients.
Looking at the files included in the openssh-clients rpm, it includes its
own ssh-askpass. And the openssh-askpass rpm seems to be completely an
Xwindows package. Based on this, I think the dependency is probably
fictitious.
And to prove it, I removed -askpass (with --nodeps) and ssh client and
server still work just fine.
