This is on Postgresql 9.6, if it matters.  Attached is a text file showing the pgbackrest version, config, backup log and "pgbackrest info" output.

I followed the instructions in https://pgbackrest.org/user-guide.html#quickstart/configure-encryption, and successfully ran these commands before the first encrypted backup, but they aren't in the text file:
rm -r /Database/9.6/backups/pgbackrest
pgbackrest stanza-create --stanza=localhost

Have I misconfigured something?

If the cipher is configured per stanza then the info command must be run per stanza, e.g.

pgbackrest --stanza=localhost info

If the cipher settings were in [global] this would work as expected, but of course there may be valid reasons to set the cipher at the stanza level. Essentially, if you run the info command without --stanza it has no knowledge of stanza-level settings.

We've known about this internally for a while, but have never seen it expressed in the field. If this is a blocker for you (i.e. you can't put the cipher settings in [global]) then feel free to open a Gtihub issue (https://github.com/pgbackrest/pgbackrest/issues) so it is on our radar.
