            Bug ID: 2192
           Summary: scp output alignment bug with UTF-8/multibyte
                    sequences
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 6.4p1
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5
         Component: scp
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org
          Reporter: vincent at vinc17.org

In UTF-8 locales:

$ scp é z localhost:/tmp
é                                            100%    0     0.0KB/s  
00:00    
z                                             100%    0     0.0KB/s  
00:00    

It seems that scp thinks that "é" has two characters since it has two
bytes in UTF-8.

I originally reported this bug against Debian in 2007[*], and it is
still present.
