How does it fail?


The ssh host -vvv gives following output

Almost never useful.  Public key auth problems are almost always on the
SERVER side.  Client side debugging doesn't give much useful information
in this case.


I checked (on server) ~/.ssh/authorized_keys and that file does
contain the keys. Permissions are set
 drwxr--r--  2 jkaspar zj    4096 Oct 16 10:38 .ssh
-rw-r--r--  1 jkaspar zj    1667 Oct 16 09:58 authorized_keys


That's a subset of the permissions that sshd will check.  See
