I *really* need to install the hpn version of openssh in Debian. The performance of scp just sucks with the default openssh (yes, I have improved the performance some using a "-c arcfour" cipher, but it's still pretty bad).

How do I do this?

I do not see any packages that would do this for me (and, it would have to be for an ARM9, to boot). So, I need to:

1) Pull the source via apt
2) Apply the HPN patch
3) Build the source
4) Install the source

Is there a good way to do this with apt? I know how to unpack an SRPM, patch it, and repack it so that it looks like a normal RPM and then install that. This is effectively what I want to do with Debian.

So, how do I do this?

Presumably, I want to pull the openssh-server from unstable somehow. Then apply the patch to the source. I'm at a loss as to how to do this.

Thanks,
-a
