Additional info:
This works in Fedora 9 which uses ncftp 3.2.1
I manually installed ncftp 3.2.2 to resolve the situation on CentOS 5.2
Comment 1 Matthias Saou 2008-12-24 16:23:14 UTC 
I've rebuilt 3.2.2 for EL-5, but as that package version no longer has the IPv6 patch, it might be considered a regression and not updated. If I had to decide, then I'd push it, as the IPv6 patch has never worked 100% correctly, but...
Comment 2 Robert Scheck 2008-12-24 21:27:12 UTC 
It would be interesting to me which duplicity version breaks something?
