Description Henry Bruce 2016-05-09 20:34:49 UTC
Recipe HOMEPAGE still points to openssh.org but it should be openssh.com.
Furthermore summary and description refer to tools unfamiliar to many developers (e.g. rlogin, rsh, rcp, telnet) 

Expected behavior
------------------
You're looking for ssh tools and search for "ssh" in recipes tab on layers.openembedded.org. You see a number of entries in search results and find one called "openssh" with a meaningful description about including ssh and sshd with a working link to the openssh web site.

Observed behavior
------------------
You're looking for ssh tools and search for "ssh" in recipes tab on layers.openembedded.org. You see a number of entries in search results and find one called "openssh" with a description that refers to tools you've never of and link to a web site that doesn't respond.


As a recommendation values should be
HOMEPAGE = http://www.openssh.com/
SUMMARY = "A suite of security-related network utilities based on the SSH protocol including the ssh client and sshd server"
