Backport patch from upstream trunk for 'hangs forever' issue On http://sourceforge.net/p/sshpass/bugs/12/ the issue is explained: Doing a "sshpass -p password ssh vmfreebsd10-32 -l account ls" hangs forever. The reason is that in this combination the prompt for the password looks like this: "Password for account@vmfreebsd10-32:" and sshpass checks the password against the string "assword:", so there is no match. This is fixed upstream in trunk, but no release has been created yet. Import the patch into the ports tree until the next release.
