Details

An updated lftp package that fixes a bug is now available.

LFTP is a sophisticated file transfer program for the FTP and HTTP
protocols. Like bash, it has job control and uses the readline library for
input. It has bookmarks, built-in mirroring, and can transfer several files
in parallel. It is designed with reliability in mind.

This updated lftp package fixes a bug in the "help mirror" command in which
all of the possible options weren't being displayed. This has been fixed so
that "help mirror" now gives detailed information.

Users are advised to upgrade to this updated lftp package, which resolves
this issue.
