Bug#1052451: openssh-client: Ctrl-C kills ssh but not ssh-add, which steals input from the terminal
Package: openssh-client
Version: 1:9.4p1-1
Severity: important
It seems that that ssh command runs ssh-add automatically.
While I did a Ctrl-C to interrupt ssh started by unison (for
synchronization with a remote machine) from mutt, ssh-add is
still running and attached to the terminal:
UID PID PPID C STIME TTY TIME CMD
vlefevre 2129 2128 0 11:00 pts/5 00:00:04 mutt
vlefevre 2358 1 0 11:03 pts/5 00:00:00 ssh-add [...]
and it steals input (typed keys) that should go to mutt.
Note: ssh-add was asking for a passphrase, and I did not want to
enter it now. That's why I did Ctrl-C.
