Description xspielinbox+redhat 2026-02-24 23:52:48 UTC

The man page ssh.1 lists some arguments for the -o option multiple times instead of only once.

This issue does not occur with the upstream documentation.

The patch 00043-openssh-8.7p1-ssh-manpage.patch does not provide any value and only introduces these duplication errors in the man page.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the man page with man ssh

Actual Results:
The possible arguments arguments in a weird order, sometimes duplicated.

Expected Results:
The possible arguments appear in a consistent order and only once each.

Additional Information:
With the code visible at https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/openssh/blob/rawhide/f/0039-openssh-8.7p1-ssh-manpage.patch this error should also apply for Rawhide.

I would suggest to simply drop this patch as all these options are already documented upstream.
