Incorrect "ALLO" command handling, can't upload file

[Serhii Gipsy]

File cannot be uploaded with error "552 xxxxxx: No space left on device", but there are enough free space to upload file:

lftp ftp@localhost:/incoming> put 111.file

###
Problem caused by following code:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/trusty/proftpd-dfsg/trusty/view/head:/modules/mod_xfer.c
2371: res = pr_fs_getsize2((char *) path, &avail_sz);
.....
2381: if (requested_sz > avail_sz) {

But function pr_fs_getsize2 retunrs avail_sz is in kilobytes, while requested_sz in bytes.

I believe this has been addressed upstream via:

  http://bugs.proftpd.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4046

and, on a related note:

  http://bugs.proftpd.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4094

[Serhii Gipsy (serhii-gipsy)]

Yes, this is a upstream 4046 bug.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
