Description Daniel Reichelt 2015-09-19 13:32:15 AEST

When creating a keypair with a passphrase of length 4, ssh-keygen errors out with "passphrase is too short (minimum four characters)".

So either the condition in sshkey.c or the error message needs adjusting.

Thanks
Daniel

Already fixed in -current and will be in openssh-7.2. Thanks
