Description Pekka Savola 2001-04-11 16:12:08 UTC

Please patch 'ftp' client (no need for the server IMO) to
enable ipv6 too.

.src.rpm against the latest (0.17-7) is available at
http://www.netcore.fi/pekkas/linux/ipv6/

Comment 1 Bernhard Rosenkraenzer 2001-04-15 19:54:16 UTC

Thanks, done in 0.17-9

Comment 2 Pekka Savola 2001-04-25 20:36:11 UTC

Mm.. Did you forget to enable the patch too? :-)

I also noted that ftp client, when rebuilt, crashes on RHL62 even without any patches:

$ rpm -q readline
readline-2.2.1-6

Too old readline I suppose.  But something has broken this some time ago.

Comment 3 Bernhard Rosenkraenzer 2001-05-18 10:30:35 UTC

Really fixed in 0.17-11.
