# Override package: openssh

## EL9

- Version `8.7p1-34.3.el9_3.security.0.2`
- Based on `8.7p1-34.el9_3.3`

### Changes summary

- Instead of linking against `libsystemd`, load it dynamically in a temporary child process to avoid polluting actual `sshd`'s address space with that library and its many dependencies (shortens `ldd sshd` output from 28 to 20 lines)
- Build without Kerberos support (further shortens `ldd sshd` from 20 to 13 lines)
