   It's hard to say where the bug is but it's a mix of circumstances leading to 
the problem scenario which might be hard to pin down:
   
   * For some reason, the user provides a config file which is syntactically 
correct but uses non-Linux line endings (in my setup, I used GitLab CI/CD's 
webform, leading to `\r` character as line ending)
   * CloudMonkey does not parse these lines, does not recognize there is a 
problem with line endings, but does recognize it can't read the variables.
   * I was not sure what the error "fail to auth, provide .." is about, if I 
provide variables as required. What has happened is actually a parse error 
(because of wrong line endings)
   * The[ actual bug 
source](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/2940) is in this context 
how GitLab handles multi-line secret variables but I think the issue line 
endings is not specific to it
