Comment 3 for bug 255085

yes I agree that php-ssh2 is buggy and a lot of it's functionality does not work properly. But it is possible to work around these issues. I don't see how the bugs in ssh2 affect the ability to create a package for it.

I do use php-ssh2 extensively with the php-cli on MS Windows.

Since my php app is designed/intended to be cross platform I really need to have ssh2 on Ubuntu as well. Otherwise how can I extol the virtues of Ubuntu??

Eh Gad, how can it be that Ubuntu can't run php as well as it runs on Windows!?!?
