Hello,

I'm running 11.1-STABLE snapshot from November. By default my vty driver is vt(4) as seen from
sysctl kern.vty
kern.vty=vt

I've tried to configure french keyboard so to be able to see and type accentuated characters, but could not succeed.

I've amended ~/.login_conf with
me:\
    :charset=ISO-8859-1:\
   :lang=fr_FR.ISO-8859-1:

but to no avail. 
The only solution I've found is to switch to sc(4) in /boot/loader.conf

So my question is: should i file a bug ?
Thanks.
