Package: openssh-client Version: 1:4.6p1-5 Severity: minor Hello, `man ssh_config` says HashKnownHosts is "no" by default: ===== HashKnownHosts Indicates that ssh(1) should hash host names and addresses when they are added to ~/.ssh/known_hosts. These hashed names may be used normally by ssh(1) and sshd(8), but they do not reveal identifying information should the file’s contents be disclosed. The default is “no”. Note that existing names and addresses in known hosts files will not be converted automatically, but may be manually hashed using ssh-keygen(1). Use of this option may break facil‐ ities such as tab-completion that rely on being able to read unhashed host names from ~/.ssh/known_hosts. ===== But in Debian HashKnownHosts is "yes" by default (debian/changelog): ===== openssh (1:4.0p1-1) experimental; urgency=low [...] * Enable HashKnownHosts by default. This only affects new entries; use 'ssh-keygen -H' to convert an entire known_hosts file to hashed format. [...] -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org> Thu, 26 May 2005 11:23:18 +0100 ===== IMHO even if the manpage is the upstream one, it should be consistent with the Debian behavior, thus stating that by default is "yes". Or, at least, a note should be added in README.Debian, especially because the debian/changelog entry is becoming old.

fixed 438654 openssh/1:4.7p1-1 forcemerge 327886 438654 thanks Hi there!

Since I think merging will not work given that #327886 is archived, I also closed #438654 with the correct version ;-) Thx, bye, Gismo / LucaAttachment: pgpN2lzOsmLOW.pgp
