Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report. I don't know if I fully understand the issue here. I installed dropbear inside a container, started it, and then ran ssh-copy-id on the host in order to copy my public key to the dropbear server. It got copied successfully and I was able to login via SSH without issues later.
Could you please provide reproduction steps here? Also, from your description, it doesn't seem like this is an openssh bug. But first we need to verify whether this is really an issue or not. Since there is not enough information in your report to begin triage or to differentiate between a local configuration problem and a bug in Ubuntu, I am marking this bug as "Incomplete". We would be grateful if you would: provide a more complete description of the problem, explain why you believe this is a bug in Ubuntu rather than a problem specific to your system, and then change the bug status back to "New". For local configuration issues, you can find assistance here: http://www.ubuntu.com/support/community ** Changed in: openssh (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to openssh in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1966886 Title: ssh-copy-id and Dropbear Server Status in openssh package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: on Dropbear SSH Servers ssh-copy-id installs the key in /etc/dropbear/authorized_keys only the openwrt dropbear server uses that path https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/blob/2211ee0037764e1c6b1576fe7a0975722cd4acdc/package/network/services/dropbear/patches/100-pubkey_path.patch the upstream dropbear server uses the normal path ~/.ssh/authorized_keys To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh/+bug/1966886/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
