[PATCH] test: Look for possible sshd-session paths (if it's there at all) in mbuto's profile - dev

26 Aug 2024

Some distributions already have OpenSSH 9.8, which introduces split
sshd/sshd-session binaries, and there we need to copy the binary from
the host, which can be /usr/libexec/openssh/sshd-session (Fedora
Rawhide), /usr/lib/ssh/sshd-session (Arch Linux),
/usr/lib/openssh/sshd-session (Debian), and possibly other paths.

Add at least those three, and, if we don't find sshd-session, assume
we don't need it: it could very well be an older version of OpenSSH,
as reported by David for Fedora 40, or perhaps another daemon (would
Dropbear even work? I'm not sure).

process")
