           Summary: ssh-copy-id hangs when using shared connection
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 6.4p1
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement

If ControlPath is specified and ControlMaster is set to auto,
ssh-copy-id will hang permanently when trying to connect to a host for
which there is already an open connection.

Please see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh/+bug/1342412

There is a fix (a new version of ssh-copy-id) in Ubuntu for this.

https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/saucy/openssh/saucy/view/head:/contrib/ssh-copy-id

Is it possible to fix this annoying (entering your password twice)
behavior?

If it is not possible to use the Ubuntu version, a quick fix would be 


if [ -d ~/.ssh/sockets ] ; then
    REMOTE_VERSION="generic"
else
    REMOTE_VERSION=$(ssh -v -o PreferredAuthentications=','
"$@" 2>&1 |
                 sed -ne 's/.*remote software version //p')
fi
