Package: git Version: 1:1.7.1-1.1 Severity: important When I try to clone a public repository, such as (but certainly not limited to) the gdm one
$ git --version git version 1.7.1 $ git clone git://git.gnome.org/gdm Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/gdm/.git/ The authenticity of host 'git.gnome.org (209.132.180.173)' can't be established. RSA key fingerprint is 00:39:fd:1a:a4:2c:6b:28:b8:2e:95:31:c2:90:72:03. Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes Warning: Permanently added 'git.gnome.org,209.132.180.173' (RSA) to the list of known hosts. Permission denied (publickey). fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly If I run this on a fedora box, I get $ git --version git version 1.7.1 $ git clone git://git.gnome.org/gdm Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/gdm/.git/ remote: Counting objects: 48351, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (11650/11650), done. remote: Total 48351 (delta 39770), reused 44128 (delta 36577) Receiving objects: 100% (48351/48351), 27.75 MiB | 2747 KiB/s, done.
