#175617 — proftpd in testing

Subjectproftpd in testing
Message-ID<sNdix-dg-5@gated-at.bofh.it>
Hello,

I'm currently doing a re-setup of my server on Debian Testing. My old
server, which is on oldstable used proftpd as FTP server.

https://packages.debian.org/search?searchon=sourcenames&keywords=proftpd

proftpd seems to be removed from Stretch. Is that true or a
misunderstanding on my side? Why was it removed? Lack of maintainer or a
specific reason?

Can you recommend any alternatives? Nothing fancy, just a ftp server
that can use mysql as authentication and bear the load of approx on or
two logins in a week... ;-)

Best,
Florian

proftpd is removed from testing, because of new bugs. See
https://packages.qa.debian.org/p/proftpd-dfsg.html
for more information.

Success,

Floris

Hey,
thanks for that information. Does not sound like it will be there when
testing goes stable, does it?

Best,
Florian

These two bugs are not fixed in this package, one of them has Release
Critical priority, hence proftpd gets droped from the testing:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=831961

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=836759

Maybe vsftpd. I'm unsure about mysql authentication though.
