#52745: openssh ssh_config should send locale variable ---------------------------------------------+----------------------------- Reporter: fweep | Owner: macports- | tickets@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.4 Keywords: openssh ssh_config locale UTF-8 | Port: openssh ---------------------------------------------+----------------------------- The default /opt/local/etc/ssh/ssh_config is empty (save for commented out options). It should include better default options. At a bare minimum, it should include the following: {{{ Host * SendEnv LANG LC_* }}} This is a sensible default. It is the default on the OSX standard /etc/ssh/ssh_config, and is also the default in any normal Unix distribution. Without this present, locale information is lost when connecting to a server. It's even lost when doing "ssh localhost". For a history of how I diagnosed this, see http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/259217/sshd-not-setting- locale/259224. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/52745> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
