Package: openssh-client
Version: 1:8.4p1-5
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

The default setting of UserKnownHostsFile has changed in this version to:

~/.ssh/known_hosts.d/%k

But existing former versions have placed it in:

~/.ssh/known_hosts
This renders ssh connections impossible, unless I change it back to the former default by adding to ssh_config: 

UserKnownHostsFile ~/.ssh/known_hosts ~/.ssh/known_hosts2

Regards,

FMF

We've made no such change, and nor has upstream.  The only places where
"known_hosts.d" appears in the current package are in changelogs and
comments.  The default for UserKnownHostsFile is still
~/.ssh/known_hosts ~/.ssh/known_hosts2, as per the documentation.
