Hi there,

Not sure if it's the right place to report this, but here we go.

When using ssh, the command complains that it cannot create the folder /home/Matt/.ssh. However, my home environment variable is set elsewhere. Hence, I'm my config file does not work and I cannot add known hosts to my known hosts file.

Here versions reported by pacman -Q -e:

  • msys2-base 1.1-2
  • msys2-runtime 2.0.15771.7e1f270-1
  • openssh 6.4p1-1

And my home environment variable:

$ echo $HOME
/c/Users/Matt

Regards,
Matt

    Sorry, my bad. My home directory was set to /home/Matt in my /etc/passwd file which was picked by ssh I guess.

    Closing since it's not a bug.

    Sorry, I can't find a place to close my own ticket, what a shame. I guess you will have to close it manually, sorry :(
