Is there one that allows reasonably comfortable access to a pure SFTP server on the CLI? I only found 'sftp' (net-misc/openssh) which is very basic (no auto-completion) and one other I can't remember right now, which didn't support key auth.

I was about to ask the same question. I gave lftp a try, but things like ls *.foo or ls -ltr don't seem to work, so it's a no go for me. I searched portage and found no other alternatives that have auto-completion or recursive download, to mention two of the things I valued most from yafc. Suggestions?
Comment 4 Martin Mokrejš 2011-03-17 19:49:53 UTC
I disagree as well because yafc also provides kerberos support. It compiles fine even at the very moment for me on x86. An existence of some opened bugs does not mean that the package cannot be compiled/installed by everybody. Please keep it in the tree. And yes, ability to use sftp is quite unique as well.

Taking over for this one. I will remove the mask when I'm confident that bug 350277 and bug 352401 are both resolved. They should be fixed as of todays version bump.

no longer in portage
