On trying to connect I receive this error

Error loading /etc/ftpd-ssl/ftpd.pem: 140302529881744:error:02001002:system library:fopen:No such file or directory:bss_file.c:398:fopen('/etc/ftpd-ssl/ftpd.pem','r')

This appears to be identical to bug 635180, which was promised to be fixed in the next release ... in 2011.

I'm sure it's possible for me to root through the documentation and figure out how to create my own cert. In fact I will do so as soon as I send this report. It should not be *necessary* to do so, ever, for the end-user. At the very least, the error message could be in English (or other languages), reading something like, "You must create a certificate to use this program. Read /usr/share/doc/ftp-ssl/cert-generation.txt for details."

It's quite annoying.

Note that I'm using Debian Mint, but this is the unmodified Debian package so a Debian bug report should be correct. Further note that the server I'm connecting to (if I could) is running Debian Jessie and ftpd-ssl.
