Created attachment 3338 [details] ssh-keygen: Support publickey export of ECDSA and DSA keys in PEM format The ssh-keygen is missing implementation of export other public key types from RSA in pem format. The attached patch implements this missing export using OpenSSL functions. According to the manual page of OpenSSL, PEM_write_RSAPublicKey, there is slight difference between the RSAPublicKey and RSA_PUBKEY (and the new functions used in the attached patch), but generally provide a way to export public key, which is better than not being able to do that at all.
