------------------------ http://curlftpfs.sourceforge.net/ The recommended version of libcurl is 7.15.4! A lot of users are reporting problems with CurlFtpFS. We tracked this problems to bugs in libcurl versions 7.15.5 and 7.16.0. Since we depend on 7.15.2 or later and versions 7.15.2 and 7.15.3 have a bug that makes CurlFtpFS do not reuse the connection all the time, the current recommended version of libcurl is either 7.15.4 or the development branch. ------------------------ So curlftpfs should require =7.15.4 or >7.16.0... but there are not such Curl ebuilds... Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:

Shrug; you can't depend on nonexistant net-misc/curl version; noone reported this on Gentoo and 7.15.5 works just fine here.
Created attachment 107841 [details] curl-7.15.4 ebuild (for curlftpfs problems?)
Created attachment 107842 [details] curlftpfs-0.9-r1 ebuild (dependency for curl 7.15.4)
> you can't depend on nonexistant net-misc/curl version; I understand, but 7.15.4 ebuild can be added. I do not see any security bug here: http://curl.haxx.se/docs/verdiff.cgi?r1=7.15.4&r2=7.15.5 so maybe adding 7.15.4 ebuild won't be a bad idea? > noone reported this on Gentoo and 7.15.5 works just fine here. Ekhm... but this does not mean that curlftpfs works OK :). On my Gentoo curlftpfs really often hangs and I have to kill its process. I did not report this as a bug however... Should I? I have added two ebuilds - works for me OK. Do what you think is right :).
doing not much on Gentoo currently. If you can find anyone to commit this he is free to do so.
probably 7.16.1 works for you?
Yes, seems that 7.16.1 is OK. I entered a bug: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=165468
