I normally have 3 loaded, but even cutting it back to 1 didn't help:

$ hg pull -u
pulling from ssh://hg@hg.python.org/peps
remote: Permission denied (publickey).
abort: no suitable response from remote hg!

However, I *did* recently upgrade to the Fedora 23 beta, so now I'm
wondering if there might be a problem with OpenSSH 7.1p1 and
ssh-ed25519 host keys (it's the only remote SSH host I using with an
ed25519 key -  all the others are still ssh-rsa).

Cheers,
Nick.
