Package: proftpd-basic
Followup-For: Bug #814772

I would close this bug mainly as an old configuration issue.

At the time I added Include /etc/proftpd/conf.d 
as a way to add a whole set of configuration files. The ~ for backup file is a
convention (e.g. Emacs), so basically any plain file will be included, so the 
admin should
ensure to include only valid and not redundant configuration files.

That said, _now_ I would use something like:

Include /etc/proftpd/conf.d/*.conf

which would obsolete this bug. This is _now_ a valid and supported include
clause (not at the time of my first change in the configuration file).
Changing that could add now more headaches for the poor maintainer, with
people complaining about supposed broken configurations and so on.
