Hi.

I would like to confirm, do you see the same problem or am I doing
something wrong here. I never used augeas before, so this is freshly
writen test code:

--->8---
import augeas

aug = augeas.Augeas()

custom_path = "/etc/ssh/sshd_config"

aug.set(f"/files{custom_path}", "")

value = aug.get(f"/files{custom_path}/PermitRootLogin")
print("Current value:", value)


def print_config(path):
    for entry in aug.match("/*"):
        key = entry.split("/")[-1]
        value = aug.get(entry)
        print(f"{key} {value}")


print_config("/files{}".format(custom_path))
---8<---

Executing looks as follows:

$ python3 a.py
Current value: prohibit-password
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/mkucharski/code/python/augeas/a.py", line 20, in <module>
    print_config("/files{}".format(custom_path))
  File "/home/mkucharski/code/python/augeas/a.py", line 14, in print_config
    for entry in aug.match("/*"):

Do you see the same?
