Title:
  sftp: cannot enter umlauts like ä, ö, ü

Status in portable OpenSSH:
  Fix Released
Status in openssh package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  When I am on the sftp prompt, I cannot enter something like ä, ö or ü.
  It just does nothing if I press the keys, so I can't transfer files
  including these characters. On the other hand, ls works fine with such
  files.

  This is my curent locale:

  $ locale
  LANG=de_DE.UTF-8
  LC_CTYPE="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_NUMERIC="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_TIME="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_COLLATE="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_MONETARY="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_MESSAGES="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_PAPER="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_NAME="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_ADDRESS="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_TELEPHONE="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_MEASUREMENT="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_IDENTIFICATION="de_DE.UTF-8"
  LC_ALL=de_DE.UTF-8
