I've tried to reproduce it with Emacs 26.3. I started in a shell with
# touch /tmp/x /tmp/y
Afterwards, I called "emacs -Q /ssh::/tmp". Moved the cursor in dired to
file x, pressed key "C", confirmed file "/ssh:hostname:/tmp/y" to be
overwritten. The echo area shows
Overwrite ‘/ssh:hostname:/tmp/y’? [Type yn!q or C-h]
as expected. Could you pls try the same scenario? Important is to start
"emacs -Q".
Best regards, Michael.
