Tramp knows to watch for questions from the remote host and then asks
the user.  The above seems to be a y/n question.  Thus, see the
variable tramp-actions-before-shell, which references the variable
tramp-yn-prompt-regexp.  You could try to tweak the variable
tramp-yn-prompt-regexp such that it recognizes the last(!) line of the
above question.

I'm guessing that the last two lines "If you trust... carry on
connecting." are actually a single line, so that might lead to a
useful regexp to enter in tramp-yn-prompt-regexp.

If it works, please email tramp-devel@nongnu.org so that the default
value of that variable is changed.

Does this help?

(I'm emailing the OP because it's been so long ago.  Hope Jack doesn't
mind.)
