Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: openssh-client

Ubuntu 6.06.1, i386

scp doesn't report crrect action when handling files with spaces in
filename. An example:

$ touch test\ file
$ touch "file test"
$ mkdir test_dir

$ scp -v file\ test test\ file test_dir
Executing: cp file test test_dir
Executing: cp test file test_dir

Compare with cp command that reports filenames correctly:

$ cp -v file\ test test\ file test_dir
`file test' -> `test_dir/file test'
`test file' -> `test_dir/test file'


$ ssh -V
OpenSSH_4.2p1 Debian-7ubuntu3.1, OpenSSL 0.9.8a 11 Oct 2005


In the past, scp was unable to handle filenames with spaces; it is fixed now, I 
comply about reporting in -v mode only.
