Package: ssh-askpass (1:1.2.4.1-16 and others)

under X, asks user for a passphrase for ssh-add

This is Jim Knoble's implementation of the ssh-askpass program, originally called x11-ssh-askpass upstream. It is built on low-level X11 libraries, and therefore has minimal dependencies.

Other ssh-askpass programs are available, some of which may integrate better into various desktop environments.
