            Bug ID: 251255
           Summary: German umlauts aren't available after the installation
           Product: Base System
           Version: CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: gbe@FreeBSD.org

When installing a fresh FreeBSD system and selecting the german keymap, on =
the
console and via a ssh session the Umlauts (=C3=B6=C3=A4=C3=BC=C3=96=C3=84=
=C3=9C) aren't available. Meaning,
the keystrokes aren't printed.

This can be solved via the following .login_conf in the home directory.

me:\
        :charset=3Diso-8859-1:\
        :lang=3Den_US.UTF-8:

Maybe this .login_conf could be generated for the first created user accoun=
t,
or set system wide, if the german keymap is selected.

This is verified against a recent -CURRENT installation, but this should al=
so
apply to -STABLE.
