>Description:
portinstall for libssh only installs a shared version of the library
but having a static version of the library is often extremely helpful,
e.g. for faster speed and/or to help debug mysterious or semi-mysterious
run-time problms/issue with programs using the library.
(Note that the version of libssh that's installed in /usr/lib by
default _does_ include a static version of the library.)
>How-To-Repeat:
su root; portinstall libssh
>Fix:
Sorry, I don't know how to fix this because libssh apparently uses
some imponderable think called "cmake" which is entirely foreign
to me.
