[Bug 1005440] [NEW] "Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key" when connecting

[Michael Nagel]

Public bug reported:

when connecting to my Ubuntu 12.04 server via ssh I get a log entry
Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key
for every (attempted) connection. SSH should be configured in a way that does not generate such a warning...
