Hi,

i have a curious problem with lftp.
I am using it many years now and i am very fond of it.
I just installed 3.1.2 with an upgrade of my Debian testing Linux.
Unfortunatly lftp wasn't the only update but since my update lftp acts a
little bit strange.

I normally use lftp in a screen (the tool for virtual console) with tsocks
(using a socks5 server) and i am queuing mirror commands like :queue
mirror -c -v DirectryName/ from my server at work.

This normally works great an reliable, but now it hangs between each
different file for exactly 5 minutes.

With debug on it looks like this:

---> PASV
<--- 277 Entering Passive Mode (xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx)
---- Connecting data socket to (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) port xxxxx
[-- here it hangs for exactly 5 minutes --]
---- Data connection established
----> RETR MyFilename
...

The funny thing is, if i type somthing in - a single letter - or even delete
a charackter with backspace it starts the transfer immediately. And thats
the part i think is so strange.

I am absolutly not sure if it is caused by the influence of update of a
different debian package or if it is lftps fault, or if the standard debian
lftp.conf has changed (i cannot remember, but i suppose it's the same)

I use a set order, and have set protect-data and protect-list on.

That's all and this worked fine for months. I also tried a self compiled
3.1.3 version with the same result.

Any clue?
