Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

Marking this as Low priority in Ubuntu since spaces in Unix usernames are so incredibly rare that I assume that this bug only affects a tiny proportion of Ubuntu users.

It looks like there is some quoting missing from the ssh-copy-id script, and that bug comes all the way from upstream via Debian.

The best place to fix this bug would be in the upstream project at http://www.openssh.com - then Debian and Ubuntu as well as non-Linux ports would all be fixed in one go.

Do you think you could follow this up with upstream directly, please?
