cannot push to AUR: bad ssh2 cypher [SOLVED]

jaap aarts · 2017-11-04 11:38:31

3 days ago a synergy2 update was released, and I have to update the package(since I am the maintainer of course)
I have all the config files in place, created a new cypher, put the public key in my profile, checked ~/.ssh/config.
The current content of ~/.ssh/config:

Host aur.archlinux.org
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/aur
User aur

Host 192.168.1.254 \\ stuff for my home network
KexAlgorithms +diffie-hellman-group1-sha1

I made a new cypher ssh-keygen -f ~/.ssh/aur and no password

yet when I try to push to the ssh link on the package page(not the one with "readonly" behind it)
I get an error message telling me to check if I have the correct rights:

/etc/ssh/ssh_config line 51: Bad SSH2 cipher spec '3des-cbc,blowfish-cbc,cast128-cbc,arcfour,arcfour128,arcfour256,aes128-cbc,aes192-cbc,aes256-cbc,rijndael-cbc@lysator.liu.se,aes128-ctr,aes192-ctr,aes256-ctr,aes128-gcm@openssh.com,aes256-gcm@openssh.com,chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com'.
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

this is inside the same local git repo I used previously to push without any problems.

EDIT

fixed by removing the cyphers listed in the error from the global ssh config.

jaap aarts, I notice you have marked this as solved, but you don't seem to have included the solution. Please could you explain what it was that you needed to do to resolve the issue? Otherwise other people with the same problem won't be able to use this topic to resolve it.
