Bug Description

Recently had the pleasure of writing an application that uses the libssh2 library; the app uses lots of threads - the shipped version of libssh2 in 10.04 crashes liberally.

I had to download 1.2.4 and use that; fine, but that crashes occasionally too.

It seems that the crashes have gone away with 1.2.6, the version being shipped with meercat.

Since I can't change our operating system again (moving from RHEL to Ubuntu 10.04 was a bit of an, erm, battle), and it would be helpful to have libssh2 installed as a standard package - would it be possible to replace 1.2.2 with 1.2.6 in lucid-updates?
