Thank you. That would bother me ;-)
Can you give me any further details on this? I looked at the bugzilla
post https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=122268
It states gftp-2.0.14-5 is ok, but gftp-2.0.17-0-FC1 can't deal with
sites with IPv6 name servers. Obviously going back to 2.0.14 is not
very feasible due to a number of other bugs. I'm gonna grab some old
packages and see if I can see where this broke and what broke it
upstream.
