Re: [Ltib] patch: sftp for dropbear ssh server

[Fritz Mueller]

Thanks much, Stuart.

I just took another look, and /usr/libexec/sftp-server does seem to be the 
correct path -- that's where the openssh package seems to want to install the 
binary, and that's where dropbear as built by the existing ltib package looks 
for it (a strings | grep on the dropbearmulti binary confirms this.)

        --FritzM.
