https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1973
Bug #: 1973
Summary: Key generation needs user assistance when destination
file already exists
Classification: Unclassified
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 5.9p1
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: ssh-keygen
AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs [at] mindrot
ReportedBy: aleksey.morarash [at] gmail
Compiled from source openssh-5.9p1.
When generating new key pair with ssh-keygen it will ask something like
> <filename> already exists.
> Overwrite (y/n)?
regardless of terminal existance. Worse, there is no option to disable
such behaviour.
To force file rewrite I use 'echo y' piped to ssh-keygen, but it still
outputs the question.
I expected '-q' option (Silence ssh-keygen) will be able to skip such
interactions.
