Re: libssh patch

[Ruben Garcia Azuara <rubenga@xxxxxx>]

Hi,

    Ok, I will suppress the brackets in config.c file.

    My intention is colaborate with the community to improve the 
library, if you think is better, I could do the patch again, and send a 
mail, without any reference to Telefonica. I didn´t try use the patch to 
add a new Telefonica copyright.

    I wait your response and thanks for your time.

Regards.
