** Description changed:

+ [Test case]
+ Connect to a x2go server on a session that has file sharing or 
audo-forwarding enabled -> Error message "SCP: Warning: status code 1 received: 
scp: ~<user>/.x2go/ssh: No such file or directory" needs to be clicked away 
with "ok".
+ 
+ [Regression potential]
+ Very low as the patch removes "~<user>" from the ssh string which is the same 
as just using no path spec (":") as the default is the home dir of the logged 
in remote user.
+ 
+ --------------------------------------------------------------------------
+ 
  The recent CVE fix broke SCP support in libssh, which X2Go Client
  (x2goclient) relies on.
  
  Sessions now fail with error messages such as "SCP: Warning: status code
  1 received: scp: ~username/.x2go/ssh: No such file or directory\n".
  (Also note the literal "\n" there, but I guess we don't really need to
  care about that.)
  
  The previous version worked fine and rolling the libssh4 package back
  fixes this issue, but also leaves users vulnerable to the fixed security
  issue in its scp implementation.
  
- 
- I've been looking at the debdiff, but spotting the actual changes is very 
difficult due to the reformatting that was done at the same time. This degraded 
the patch(es) into one big blob.
