Hello,

it seems that AUR provides libssh version 0.7.5 that has some issues with SSH config reading (it fails to read options from a provided configuration file.) Back in June 2017 I prepared a patch to fix the problem: https://git.libssh.org/projects/libssh.git/commit/?id=5333be5988c3789e701159...

but the patch was integrated to libssh _after_ 0.7.5 release (it was released in April 2017.) Could the libssh library be upgraded in AUR to integrate the aforementioned patch?

I'm not an avid Arch GNU/Linux user so if I'm wrong about something please don't hesistate to point me out to it.

FWIW, I'm the main developer of Guile-SSH library [1] that uses libssh.

Thanks!

Hello Artyom, the repository version of libssh[1] does contain your patch presumably. The AUR version libssh-git[2] builds from the libssh git master and should contain the patch then as well.
