+SDECFG_PKG_OPENSSH_LPK
+  Enable OpenSSH LDAP Public Key support.
+
+  The OpenSSH LDAP Public Key patch provides an easy way of centralizing
+  strong user authentication by using an LDAP server for retrieving public
+  keys instead of ~/.ssh/authorized_keys.
+
+  Please note that this feature is not included in openssh source code and
+  requires a contributed patch from a third party.
+
+  See http://code.google.com/p/openssh-lpk/ for more information.
