[Bug 276534] Re: gstm should drop gaskpass and Depend: ssh-askpass

[Trochee]

I believe it is a mistake to maintain a separate security-sensitive
application (asking for passwords) inside a tangentially-related
package, when a perfectly good -- and well-maintained -- programs exist
for the same purpose.  ssh-askpass-gnome is even part of openssh, which
is (I think) necessary for gSTM.

Choosing 'Won't Fix' -- including gAskPass makes this package
unnecessarily bloated and is well beyond the scope of a graphical tool
for organizing SSH connections.
