#29619: openssh 5.8p1 use OSX xauth binary instead of removing xauth warning

Priority: Normal | Milestone:
Component: ports | Version: 1.9.2
Keywords: | Port: openssh
--------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
A variant mute_fake_xauth has been created to remove the "Warning: No
xauth data; using fake authentication data for X11 forwarding." message.
This warning is due to the fact that the socket has been created by
launchd.
If you use the "original" xauth binary (/usr/X11/bin/xauth) of OSX, the
xauth list can connect to the socket that launchd has been created and
return the good information for X11 forwarding.
So the best is perhaps not using the macport xauth binary but instead use
the original xauth binary of OSX. You only need to change the --with-
xauth=${prefix}/bin/xauth configure flag with --with-
xauth=/usr/bin/X11/xauth. In this case you can also remove the dependency
of xauth
