this is not a bug. It seems like AWS is keeping keys in the PEM RSA format in the cloud. and the MD5 fingerprint is of that file. But we have the fingerprint of the ssh-rsa format. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/ec2-key-pairs.html#verify-key-pair-fingerprints

Than i think we need some verification if teh key in teh cloud is the same as locally. maybe we can locally tronsform in what amazon stores and than compare the fingerprint form AWS with the local fingerprint of the process that aws uses and we should get the same.
