Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
Finding out what the various fields of the authorized_hosts file mean is
a bit of a challenge. Actually there's a hint "hidden" in the ssh.1
page: "The format of this file is described in the sshd(8) manual
page.".
It'd be nice if it'd be easier to find the information and thus I
suggest adding a link from the sshd manpage to authorized_keys.5.
Attached is a suggested patch, that could possibly be pushed to
upstream. The patch is untested.
Thanks,

Changes:
openssh (1:4.6p1-6) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Remove blank line between head comment and first template in
debian/openssh-server.templates.master; apparently it confuses some
versions of debconf.
* Install authorized_keys(5) as a symlink to sshd(8) (thanks, Tomas
Pospisek; closes: #441817).
* Discard error output from dpkg-query in preinsts, in case the ssh
metapackage is not installed.
* Fix sshd/inittab advice in README.Debian to account for rc.d movement
(closes: #450632).
* Suppress error from debian/rules if lsb-release is not installed.
* Don't ignore errors from 'make -C contrib clean'.
* Adjust categories in ssh-askpass-gnome.desktop to comply with the
Desktop Menu Specification.
* debconf template translations:
- Add Slovak (thanks, Ivan Masár; closes: #441690).
- Update Brazilian Portuguese (thanks, Eder L. Marques;
closes: #447145).
