Description:
kio_sftp in KDE SC 4.13 requires libssh ≥ 0.6.0, while ArchLinux has only 0.5.5:
https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kde-runtime/repository/entry/kioslave/CMakeLists.txt?rev=KDE%2F4.13#L14
https://www.archlinux.org/packages/?q=libssh

Without libssh ≥ 0.6.0, KDE SC builds kdebase-runtime without kio_sftp.
It does not fail the whole build process, just excludes the sftp:// kio slave library.

Additional info:
* kde-unstable/kdebase-runtime 4.12.80-1

Steps to reproduce:
* Install kde from kde-unstable
* Try to use the sftp:// kio slave. It does not work, because it wan't built and included in kdebase-runtime.

This is a regression over the stable kdebase-runtime 4.12.3 version.

Workaround: use fish:// kio slave (not very nice solution) or use any other sftp client.

Probably new libssh should be included in [testing] or in [kde-unstable].
This task depends upon

I just reverted the commits that add libssh 0.6 support in KDE.
We'll not switch to libssh until the new x2goclient is out. Follow thread https://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-dev-public/2014-January/025808.html and https://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-dev-public/2014-March/025982.html for more info.
