Please ignore this thread for the moment.
At present, there are no complete copies of the file in question at the
destination.
I was sure yesterday, but OTOH I can't imagine why existing copies would
have been deleted. It's not supposed to work that way.
I've been monitoring the situation in screen, and I can't see any
evidence of multiple copies in the scrollbuffer: either I erased them
when clearing the screen, or I was dreaming yesterday.
I have suspected the behaviour I thought I saw yesterday, before, but
there doesn't seem any merit asking anyone to pursue something that may
be a figment of my mismemory.
If the problem does exist, it will surface in the near future, subject
to the Internet not falling over in our neck of the woods.
