Not the clients; the key repository.  Early in this thread there
was mention that various clients had to be configured for the
idiosyncratic location of that repository.

I've not needed to do that on MacOS nor on Linux.  I assume that
each client was built with the common libssh; they all knew where
the keys are.  "Competition of ideas" concerning the location of SSH
keys is counterproductive.
