A recently released bug fix version of lftp no longer works when used for mirroring repositories as part of the mrepo program.

does not
Expected results:
lftp command should complete.
Additional info:
I have tested this on a virgin vagrant centos 6.8 VM and a number of VM's running Centos 6 with the same result. Downgrading makes the lftp command work again.
