Source: openssh Version: 1:6.7p1-6 Severity: wishlist Passing the terminal version to the server side is useful for programs that depend on some terminal features (for instance, to make sure that some query escape sequence will receive an answer).
In the case of xterm, it is provided by XTERM_VERSION, which should be added to the SendEnv line in /etc/ssh/ssh_config and to the AcceptEnv line in /etc/ssh/sshd_config. Alternatively, standardize something like that for all terminals. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.0.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=POSIX, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
