Hi, Jeremy, thanks for the report (and trying out dput-ng) Sorry for the hickup, let's see what's going on here.

I believe this has been a problem since we added SFTP support, FWIW

^^^^^
This is true :)
SFTP is an odd little protocol -- and old dput (which didn't have
proper SFTP support) must have not handled this right, since tracking
down $HOME over SFTP isn't easy or really correct to do.
In general, SFTP should put you in what it thinks it "$HOME", so
perhaps removing "~" will work.
It'd be nice for someone to research what dput-old does, but this is
now on the menu again.
