of course that one won't work ... maybe that's a typo but that's
kinda the point.
Sorry, what's the typo? Why won't it work?
since you're using ftp, 'ftp $PKG_PATH' should put you in the right
directory. does it?
Well, I tried `links $PKG_PATH ` before - that worked. But with `ftp
$PKG_PATH`, it appears to log in correctly, but ls never returns
anything. This seems to happen with ANY ftp server actually (just
tried a bunch), and is odd because I did use the commandline ftp
utility frequently on 4.6 without any issue...
So the problem lies with the 'ftp' utility?
