Package: scponly
Version: 4.6-1

Scponly's restricted shell seems not to work with WinSCP in scp mode,
because most commands fail with a double free.

This bug is known by scponly maintainers and a patch seems to have
been committed, though a new release has not yet been made. See
<https://lists.ccs.neu.edu/pipermail/scponly/2007-January/001708.html>
for more.

Since WinSCP has long had standard sftp support (it's the default
since May'05), maybe WinSCP compatibility mode could be disabled while
the bug stands?
