2. GET it
Actual Results:
see Details
Expected Results:
complete fetch. Installed lftp as a substitute which had no problem.
if you put these into your CFLAGS does it work ?
-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE
Yes, confirmed, that does it.
I would suggest to put these options to default for this package, since most of
the environment around it (filesystems, vsftpd, lftp...) is already
largefile-enabled, so this comes rather unexpected.

Reopen as it seems that ftp-0.17-r6 and ftp-0.17-r7 have the same issue. See
bug 234599
new bug -> new issue ... the reason for the breakage is different as things
have changed
