Bug 2733

PLatform and version: Tried it on debian ans opensuse, and older debians where version is 6.0p1 or 5.1p1 so it's not a new error.

Problem: when listing files in sftp with wildcard and there is more than one match to the wildcard, then there is no file stats and order by also not working.

For example:
when there is one match to wildcard:
sftp> ls -l /var*

there are file owners and everything, also if I want to order by date it's working fine.


But if there are more then one match to wildcard (it doesn't matter match to dirs or filenames), then there is no stats and order by not working, got random order

sftp> ls -l /lib*

As it can see in debug messeges when working fine with one match there is "Sending SSH2_FXP_READDIR" message, but if there are more matches to wildcard then not sending that request.
