I used the following patch to cause it to work for me:
In apps/ssh/sshchx11.c, around line 491:
REPLACE THIS:
if (stat(XAUTH_PATH, &st) < 0)
{
SSH_DEBUG(1, ("request_x11: no X11 installed"));
return FALSE;
}
WITH THIS:
#ifdef XAUTH_PATH
if (stat(XAUTH_PATH, &st) < 0)
{
SSH_DEBUG(1, ("request_x11: no X11 installed"));
return FALSE;
}
#else
return FALSE;
#endif
I'm no C programmer, so there may be a better way to do this. This works
for me, though. I've reported this to ssh2-bugs and haven't gotten a reply
yet.
