Well, I don't know about bug but it looks like permissions were not properly set in a recent update. If I use Windows' FTP.EXE, I can see permissions with a unix style 'dir' command: 'ls -l'. In both directories pub/vim/runtime/autoload and pub/vim/runtime/dos/autoload, the typical file has permission '-rw-r--r--' - everyone can read. These I can read. One file (netrwSettings.vim) has permission '-rwr--' - everyone can read except members of a certain group. The 4 files I'm unable to read (netrw.vim, tar.vim, vimball.vim and zip.vim) have permissions set as '-rw---' - only system administrators can read.

Problem in dos runtime on Vim FTP
Hello Vim List, Since yesterday, 4 files in the dos/autoload directory cannot be downloaded - it doesn't appear to matter which FTP client is used. The four problem files are: netrw.vim tar.vim vimball.vim zip.vim The URL for the directory of these files is: ftp://ftp.home.vim.org/pub/vim/runtime/dos/autoload -- Best regards, Bill

If your download problem isn't yet fixed by now, try the corresponding files in ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/runtime/autoload/ . They will have LF-only ends-of files (which makes them slightly shorter and not Notepad-compatible) but Vim should have no problem using them (if your 'fileformats' includes unix, which is the default). Best regards, Tony.

If you have a version of rsync you may try using that: it worked for me. The command I use (which was mentioned in a recent post in a different thread, and which I repeat here) is cd ~/.build/vim/vim70 rsync -avzcP --delete --exclude=/dos/ ftp.nluug.nl::Vim/runtime/ ./runtime I suppose a trivial modification would be enough to make it fit your setup.
