Package: ssh

Followup-For: Bug #896145
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]

I also did notice this few days ago.

When connecting using FQDN it works.

Matching host key fingerprint found in DNS.

But if I use shortname, (and it still resolves, because I have search
list setup) to the same IP, the ssh client says:

DNS lookup error: name does not exist    # when running with -v

No matching host key fingerprint found in DNS.


The truth is this is probably an issue in libc getaddrinfo design, which
does not return canonical name back after finishing resolving.
