ssh-copy-id conflicts with openssh

Reported by: cooljeanius (Eric Gallager) Owned by: larryv (Lawrence Velázquez)
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.1.3
Keywords: Cc: seanfarley (Sean Farley)

Description

They both install a binary named ssh-copy-id. They're both shell scripts, so I've attached a diff between the two. The diff is pretty minor...

What’s the point of ssh-copy-id, if openssh provides the script?

Marked as conflicting in r103230.

Huh. All these years, and I didn't know that ssh-copy-id was in openssh all this time. We could do a few things,

1) Make openssh depend on ssh-copy-id (and change openssh to delete its copy) 2) Delete ssh-copy-id entirely 3) Mark as conflicting

(1) seems like overkill and (2) makes me worry with the recent openssl debacle. I don't feel strongly about any options and (3) was already done by larryv (thanks!) but if people do feel strongly about (1) or (2), we could try those.

I'm ok with just sticking with (3) for now.

I really think we should go with 2, but I’m fine with waiting until the openssl issue is cleared up.
