Qubes OS version:

R4.0 rc4

Affected TemplateVMs:

debian-9, for example

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. run qvm-copy without arguments in order to get help about it.

Expected behavior:

usage: qvm-copy FILE [FILE ...]

Copy FILE to
   ~/QubesIncoming/{{substitute hostname here}}      in the destination VM.

You'll be prompted for a destination VM.

If FILE is a directory, it will be copied recursively.

Seems like it also preserves permissions.

Actual behavior:

usage: /usr/bin/qvm-copy-to-vm [--without-progress] dest_vmname file [file]+

@mirrorway mirrorway changed the title from debian-9 template contains non-free software to qvm-copy incorrect usage text Feb 4, 2018
