Sanne,

When running Ansible to update the CI slaves on OS X, I get the following error:

TASK: [jenkins-slave | Ensure cimaster is a known host] ***********************
unknown key type ecdsa
fatal: [209.132.178.232] => lookup_plugin.pipe(ssh-keyscan -t ecdsa
54.174.65.136) returned 255

Can we use another key type than "ecdsa"? Apparently the SSH coming
with OS X has no support for it (see [1]) and I'd prefer to use the
default version rather than having to install another one.

Thanks,

--Gunnar
