Reproduction steps:

Suppose I want to connect to 222.222.222.222 with user kel.

1. emacs -Q

2. C-x C-f /scpx:address@hidden:/ RET Then a dired buffer showing
the root directory is opened.

3. With cursor in the dired buffer, hit C-x C-f again.  I see the
minibuffer shows

“Find file: /scpx:address@hidden://”.

I hit RET, the buffer is flashed, and the minibuffer shows

“Directory has changed on disk; type g to update Dired”.

If I go to other directory such as /bin, no double “//” is shown. I
have tested with two servers and the observation is identical.

I have to say that the problem isn’t serious, so feel free to ignore
it.

Thank you for your time.
