Bug#582472: libgnomevfs2-0: cannot connect to drop-only ftp that refuses 'ls' query

[Mark Hedges]

Package: libgnomevfs2-0
Version: 1:2.24.3-1
Severity: normal


$ ftp ftp.blip.tv
Connected to ftp.blip.tv.
220 Service ready for new user
Name (ftp.blip.tv:hedges): hedges333
331 User name okay, need password for hedges333
Password:
230 User logged in, proceed
Remote system type is UNIX.
ftp> ls
200 Command PORT okay
150 File status okay; about to open data connection
226 Closing data connection
ftp> 

When I try to connect in Nautilus, it says:

Could not display "ftp://ftp.blip.tv/".
Error: Unexpected end of stream
Please select another viewer and try again.

This is a drop-only ftp box that auto-processes files and refuses ls.
I should be able to drag files to it, even though they don't appear.

Also, "please select another viewer" is confusing.  Does it mean
"please select another location"?

Thanks!

Mark
