Hello all,
We got a report [1], that we miss "p1" suffix in the sshd identification
strings in Fedora. I dig in and found out that it is also missing from
portable usptream since 2004, when you were rewriting version.h header
file with this information.
Debian somehow patched this information back during the time in some
places (ssh_api.c is missing).
It does not look like intention to remove the release version
information [2]. Can you clarify?
