Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
I can see why it would hang on the line you've said - I presume the client will never see "remote software version" in this case. I wonder if a fix would be to have line add "-Snone" to the ssh call, so that no control socket is ever used. ** Bug watch added: OpenSSH Portable Bugzilla #2195 https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2195 ** Also affects: openssh via https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2195 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Changed in: openssh (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium -- 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/1342412 Title: ssh-copy-id hangs when using ControlMaster auto Status in Portable OpenSSH: Unknown Status in “openssh” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: On ubuntu 14.04 amd 64, running openssh-client 1:6.6p1-2ubuntu2, when using in ~/ssh/config ControlMaster auto If you open an ssh connection to an host, and after try to run ssh-copy-id on the same host, trying to reuse the already opened connection, ssh-copy-id hangs.
