Package: gnupg-agent Version: 2.1.7-1 Severity: minor I added the following ECDSA SSH key earlier today (with GnuPG 2.1.6). gpg-agent added it to sshcontrol with an incorrect MD5 fingerprint:
ecdsa-sha2-nistp384

# ECDSA key added on: 2015-08-15 20:51:39
# MD5 Fingerprint: bf:b2:5c:1e:be:8a:63:74:19:50:bf:23:21:3c:ff:5e
0D3ADB5BC29D85ECCA7397095962CB389A1C734D 0
Considering the simplicity of the algorithm[0], I'm not sure why this is
broken, but it does appear to be. This is confusing, but otherwise
purely aesthetic. The key functions correctly and can be used normally.
(Once OpenSSH 7.0 hits unstable, you might consider putting the SHA-256
fingerprint in instead, but that's another bug report.)
