Wercker builds failing "could not read from remote repository"

Question

As of last week, all builds for Wercker are failing due to an error when Wercker attempts to clone in to the Github repository.

Cloning into 'xxxx'...
Host key verification failed.
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

I've renewed the authorization for the Github repo, but the error remains. I was able to succesfully create builds with the same setting that are now failing on Wednesday.

Is anybody else having similar issues? Any thoughts on who to resolve this?

Turns out that Wercker made a change in the 'add-to-known_hosts' section in wercker.yml.

old structure:

add-to-known_hosts:
    hostname: github.com
    fingerprint: ...

new structure:

[email protected]:
    hostname: github.com
    fingerprint: ...
    type: rsa
