            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: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

When installing a fresh FreeBSD system and selecting the german keymap, on the
console and via a ssh session the Umlauts (öäüÖÄÜ) aren't available. Meaning,
the keystrokes aren't printed.

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

me:\
        :charset=iso-8859-1:\
        :lang=en_US.UTF-8:

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

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