Hi Santiago,

I am preparing an update of cloud-init that will correct the problem.  Since we
usually generate Stable images with a backport of cloud-init, I think that we
do not need a stable update.  You (and others) are much welcome prepare one if
you think the contrary, but my experience with the Stable release team is that
they are so overloaded that there are often multiple weeks of delay for getting
answers from them, so I would not bother them with a non-critical issue.

Have a nice day,

Bug#788196: cloud-init: Does not generate an ed25519 ssh key on jessie

2015-06-09 Thread Santiago Vila
Package: cloud-init
Version: 0.7.6~bzr976-2
Severity: important

On Debian 8, the default /etc/ssh/sshd_config has four different host
keys:

HostKey /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
HostKey /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key
HostKey /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key
HostKey /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key

but cloud-init does only generate the first three, which makes strange
messages like this one to appear in /var/log/auth.log:

[...] sshd[4859]: error: Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key

Since this package is used by several VPS vendors offering Debian images,
please consider an upload for stable fixing this.

Thanks.
