Package: scponly
Version: 4.6-1
Severity: normal

scponly 4.6 has a bug which causes it to reject rsync connection
attempts with:

scponly[9758]: option e is not permitted for use with /usr/bin/rsync (arg was 
rver)(username: backupitchy(1006), IP/port: 65.95.163.82 61183 22))
scponly[9758]: requested command (/usr/bin/rsync --server . /tmp) tried to use 
disallowed argument (username: backupitchy(1006), IP/port: 65.95.163.82 61183 
22))

It is not parsing the long option "--server" correctly.  I believe
this patch fixes this problem:

There are about 15 relevant messages on the scponly mailing list,

Maybe Debian can include the patch?
