Bug Description
My ~/.ssh/config has
Host *.canonical.com
User pitti
and some convenience aliases as the actual host names change from time to time:
Host cdimage
HostName nusakan.
Host langpack
HostName macquarie.
For years, until the previous Wily version 6.7 this was working as expected. But since today with 6.9 trying to ssh to e. g. langpack stopped taking the "User pitti" into account:
$ ssh -v cdimage
[...]
debug1: Authenticating to nusakan.
[...]
Permission denied (publickey).
"martin" is my local user name at my laptop, i. e. the default when "User" isn't set.
If I don't use the alias and do "ssh nusakan.
