Unsupported key exchange algorithm: curve25519-sha256@libssh.org

See original GitHub issue

I have configured an SSH connection with a key file in /home/user/.ssh/id_rsa_myproject and iIt worked yesterday in v126, but doesn’t work today in v127. I get the following error:

 SSH  Connecting to ip_address

 X  Unsupported key exchange algorithm: curve25519-sha256@libssh.org
 SSH   X  Remote rejected opening a shell channel: Error: Not connected

This was due to me having to downgrade Electron because of the native crashes in the new version, and the older Node doesn’t have support for c25519 exchanges. Please try this nightly build: https://nightly.link/Eugeny/terminus/workflows/windows/master/Installer (win) / https://nightly.link/Eugeny/terminus/workflows/macos/master/macOS .pkg (x86_64).zip (mac)

Updated from 1.2.5 to 1.2.7 and I got the same issue. Reverting back to 1.2.5 fixed the issue. Client is on latest stable Win10 and server is Ubuntu 20.4.

Reverting back, work for me. Thanks.
