--- Comment #6 from M. Scherer <mscherer at redhat.com> ---
No, I rather try to figure what was wrong, and why it was working before.
And if that was never working, why it wasn't detected sooner.

So far, I did found some quoting issue (and pushed a fix), but this was likely
present since more than 1 year. 

Were the test disabled since that time ?

Also, the key to connect is /root/.ssh/id_georep , you can use it for the test.
I did make sure this is properly limited to localhost, to avoid various
security issue. 

And the reason this is done like this is because the tests were not cleaning up
 the old root key when they broke (or when it did block the system), which in
turn did cause trouble to connect as root after a while, IIRC (cause there is a
limit, if only computational to the number of key you can place in
authorized_keys).

We did manage last time to avoid breakage since we were using salt, but now we
use ansible, any sshd breakage would be much more annoying to fix.
