Followup-For: Bug #303595
Package: lftp
Version: 3.5.0-1
Regarding Alexander V. Lukyanov's reply and workaround,
> Most probably lftp tries to resolve the name to IPv6 address.

I can say that it doesn't seem to work here at all.
~$ grep 10.1.1.5 /etc/hosts
10.1.1.5 stinky.localdomain stinky
~$ cat /etc/host.conf
order hosts,bind
multi on
~$ cat /etc/resolv.conf
search localdomain
nameserver 127.0.0.1
~$ ping 10.1.1.5

~$ grep dns:order /etc/lftp.conf /home/b/.lftprc
/etc/lftp.conf:set dns:order inet
/home/b/.lftprc:set dns:order "inet"
And it is picking up the last entry above:
~$ strace lftp 2>&1 | grep open
(snip)
open("/etc/lftp.conf", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE) = 4
open("/home/b/.lftprc", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE) = 4
open("/home/b/.lftp/rl_history", O_RDONLY) = 4
open("/etc/inputrc", O_RDONLY) = 4
open("/home/b/.inputrc", O_RDONLY) = 4
Yet:
~$ lftp stinky
open: host name resolve timeout
And surprisingly:
~$ lftp 10.1.1.5
lftp: host name resolve timeout
