[arch-general] libssh: 0.7.5 from AUR seems to have config reading issues
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. Regards, Khorne [1] https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/trunk/PKGBUILD?h=packag... [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=libssh-git#n15
Hello Khorne,
thank you for the answer. It seems that I was wrong: the libssh version
from the AUR includes the patch indeed. Just made a test program and it
reads a configuration file fine.
