Title:
  ssh-keygen invocation difficult to copy-paste

Status in openssh package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  When connecting to a host whose host keys have changed (e.g. when
  connecting to a new instance in a cloud), something like the below
  message is displayed. The ssh-keygen invocation is harder to copy-
  paste than it could be if it were on a separate line.

  @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
  @    WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED!     @
  @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
  IT IS POSSIBLE THAT SOMEONE IS DOING SOMETHING NASTY!
  Someone could be eavesdropping on you right now (man-in-the-middle attack)!
  It is also possible that a host key has just been changed.
  The fingerprint for the ECDSA key sent by the remote host is
  <REDACTED>.
  Please contact your system administrator.
  Add correct host key in /home/<user>/.ssh/known_hosts to get rid of this message.
  Offending ECDSA key in /home/<user>/.ssh/known_hosts:408
    remove with: ssh-keygen -f "/home/<user>/.ssh/known_hosts" -R <REDACTED>
  ECDSA host key for <REDACTED> has changed and you have requested strict checking.
  Host key verification failed.
