Package: python-x2go Version: 0.4.0.9 Whenever a host key is registered using pyhoca-cli or pyhoca-gui, the $HOME/.ssh/known_hosts file gets clobbered: all keys whose type is not either ssh-dss or ssh-rsa (namely, ECDSA and Ed25519 host keys) are removed.
Steps to reproduce: 1. register some ECDSA/Ed25519 host keys 2. backup .ssh/known_hosts 3. define a new profile in pyhoca-gui selecting "Store SSH host keys under (unique) X2Go session profile ID" 4. connect to the host and accept the host key 5. run a diff between the old known_hosts file and the current .ssh/known_hosts file Expected behaviour: there should _only_ be an addition for the new ssh host key registered by python-x2go and no other modification Actual result: there is an addition for the new host key registered by python-x2go and removals for all ecdsa and ed25519 host keys I suspect this is a problem with paramiko not understanding ECDSA and Ed25519 keys in known_hosts and summarily discarding them, nevertheless I'm raising the bug here because the x2go PPA for Ubuntu ships a custom version of paramiko for precise (also because it should probably be noted in the release notes and/or worked around in python-x2go if possible).
