Re: upgrading open ssh

[Armen Kaleshian <akaleshian@kriation.com>]

Piece of cake. ;-)

rpm -e <the name of the package>

You might run into some dependency issues, and if you get stuck into a loop,
just use the --nodeps switch to remove a package that's causing the loop.

As long as you're just removing the openssh-* packages, you'll be all set to use
the one compiled from source.

Let me know if you need anything else.
