[Bug 1823578] Re: scp doesn't work; required GLIBC versions not found; connection lost

[Talib Pierson]

I replicated this bug in a virtual machine
scp -r /home/talib/Desktop/Week\ 2\ Lab talib.pierson at syccuxas01.pcc.edu:/home/student/talib.pierson/
Password:

Title:
  scp doesn't work; required GLIBC versions not found; connection lost

Status in openssh package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Command:
  scp -r '/home/talib/Desktop/Week 2 Lab' talib.pierson at syccuxas01.pcc.edu:/home/student/talib.pierson/

  lost connection

  Notes:
  ldd (Ubuntu GLIBC 2.28-0ubuntu1) 2.28

  libc6 is already the newest version (2.28-0ubuntu1)

  I created symlink to libc.so.6 to see if that was the problem:
  sudo ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 /lib64/libc.so.6
  yet the problem persisted

  Does this have anything to do with
  [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MultiarchSpec Multiarch]?
