Package: openssh-client Version: 1:8.4p1-2~bpo10+1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, A coworker of mine has stumbled upon a strange inconsistency with ssh parsing ssh_config. * What led up to the situation? An upgrade was performed from v7.9p1-10+deb10u3 to v8.4p1-2~bpo10+1. Running ssh afterwards failed with the following error: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 218: unsupported option Which references this line of the configuration: AddKeysToAgent="no" * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or * ineffective)? Removing the surrounding quotes from the 'no' token. * What was the outcome of this action? This allowed the file to be parsed properly, and ssh to work without issue. * What outcome did you expect instead? We expected that the quoted format be accepted.
