Please forgive me for the noise: the problem is in the environment of
(one of) my remote user!
I tested again with other users on other hosts and the environment
variables of my profile are correctly set.
Anyway, the shell I get when connecting is still not fully functional,
for example autocompletion does not work (write a substring and then
TAB) and also up and down arrow keys do not work (echoes escape
sequances instead of showing the shell history)
Am I still doing something wrong with my environment?
Ouch! Gio'
