'cp' does not ignore case. It may well happen that the target filesystem
is case-insensitive, or case-confused -- and 'cp' will be hit by an
error like you reported. This is not a coreutils issue, but a limitation
of the target filesystem.

No matter what (and even if 'cp'  was indeed at fault) we would need
detailed data to follow this up:

* target filesystem type
* exact command issued and responses
* Ubuntu and coreutils versions (as shown via 'dpkg -l coreutils' and 
'lsb_release -a').

For the new issues, I suggest opening new bugs, after verifying it is
not a target filesystem limitation).

Closing INVALID; please reopen if you do not agree, or have additional
information.

** Changed in: coreutils (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid
