--- Comment #2 from Thomas Waldmann <twaldmann at thinkmo.de> ---
I just reproduced it:

sudo adduser bugtest
sudo vim /etc/ssh/sshd_config # enable ssh password login
sudo service ssh restart

ssh-copy-id -i .ssh/tw_rsa_2008.pub bugtest at localhost
/usr/bin/ssh-copy-id: INFO: attempting to log in with the new key(s),
to filter out any that are already installed
/usr/bin/ssh-copy-id: INFO: 1 key(s) remain to be installed -- if you
are prompted now it is to install the new keys
bugtest at localhost's password: 

Number of key(s) added: 1

Now try logging into the machine, with:   "ssh 'bugtest at localhost'"
and check to make sure that only the key(s) you wanted were added.


sudo vim /etc/ssh/sshd_config # disable ssh password login
sudo service ssh restart

ssh-copy-id -i .ssh/tw_rsa4096_2015.pub bugtest at localhost
/usr/bin/ssh-copy-id: INFO: attempting to log in with the new key(s),
to filter out any that are already installed

/usr/bin/ssh-copy-id: WARNING: All keys were skipped because they
already exist on the remote system.
