Sorry - allow me to make that somewhat readable... Please delete above non-formatted mess!

This bug is not relevant for BLFS-6.3. If you use an LFS-6.3 toolchain both the 1.3.0 and 1.3.1 will compile and install just fine. There's no doubt there's probably issues using more a more recent toolchain.

Leaving the bug open (changed priority and target). If there is an updated version (1.3.2), then this bug should be closed as the problem is fixed in upstream CVS.

[Randy McMurchy]

There's now a 1.3.2rc3 available released on 20 November 2008. By the time we're ready to cut a BLFS-6.4rc and the 1.3.2 has not been released, we'll have to use the candidate.

Another rassing-frassing-ProFTPD-rc-release-grumble-mumble. This time it's rc4, a bugfix one.

Finaly there is 1.3.2. But I'm still sticking with vsftpd.
