Bug#527288: openssh-client: Incorrect "Is a directory" error



Package: openssh-client
Version: 1:5.1p1-5
Severity: minor

When specifying a destination with a trailing slash, if it does not
exist the error message is "foo: Is a directory" when it means "foo:
No such directory".

$ scp foo:/tmp/foo bar/
bar/: Is a directory
$ ls
$ scp foo:/tmp/foo .
$ scp foo:/tmp/foo bar
$
