Bug#858646: openssh-client: security update of ssh-copy-id breaks previous behaviour by searching for matching private key



Package: openssh-client
Version: 1:6.7p1-5+deb8u3
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,

I made security updates on jessie (can't remember last version I had of this
package)
but the update broke previous behaviour wich is bad on a stable release.

now the ssh-copy-id tool used with the -i option checks for a matching private
key.
at least half of my use of this tool is to add public keys of other peoples.

This was reported as a bug upstream and it has been solved by adding a -f
option.
