Peskiness: critical
uscan does active ftp by default on ftp:// URLs. While this can be
overriden in the watch file and allegdly via some environment variable,
it is no sane default since the days firewalls, NATs and hosts with
multiple IP addresses were invented.
Even worse, when this fails, it does not even output an error message.
Even using --verbose --debug you only get:
| uscan debug: received content:
| [End of received content]
while the ftp server is actually sending errors:
| read(4, "500 Illegal PORT command.\r\n", 1024) = 27
Thanks in advance,
