Enhancements
As of 2008-08-22, If you run debian lenny you're very close to being
able to run a fully monkeysphere-enabled system. One gap in the
system is that lenny's GnuTLS can't support the monkeysphere subkey-to-ssh-agent
subcommand.
You can install a patched version of GnuTLS to enable this feature of
the MonkeySphere by adjusting the monkeysphere sources.list
lines to
include the gnutls
component. So they'd look like this instead:
deb http://monkeysphere.info/debian experimental monkeysphere gnutls
deb-src http://monkeysphere.info/debian experimental monkeysphere gnutls
