BTW, if there are no plans to remove inetutils, we might was well keep the utils such as ftp and telnet that it current installs.
But that was one of the reasons I was proposing we remove it. 'ftp' simply doesn't compile out of the box on the gcc4 branch, and the only patch we have causes it to segfault when issuing any command to it! Upstream applied the patch, then reverted it shortly afterwards when they realised it was the wrong fix. Unfortunately the right fix still hasn't materialised (and I'm not qualified to be able to engineer the fix myself).
