I would think the .ssh directory would be sufficient. I'm not sure where to report the problem as well. Things that occur to me: does ssh-copy-id assume that /home/$USER has the correct perms without checking? if so, on what is that assumption based and who sets that perm (adduser perhaps?)? That's where I see the breakdown. Either ssh-copy-id isn't doing a sufficient job of checking or its assumptions are faulty. .02 A
