Discrepancy with upstream version

Asked by 12345ieee on 2021-02-08

The upstream version at https://github.com/danfruehauf/NetworkManager-ssh claims to have an `Extra SSH Options` dialog, as shown in https://github.com/danfruehauf/NetworkManager-ssh/blob/master/images/AdvancedDialog.png .

But the latest Ubuntu package 1.2.11-1 doesn't have that option, but has all the others shown in the image.

Is there some security reason? should I build from sources to get that option?

It seems that this option has been removed, but the images have not yet been updated to reflect this.

Dammit, I was after port binding, I guess I'll bring this upstream.

Thanks for the help.
