2.0 acq - error when running edi_fetcher.pl

When attempting to run the script edi_fetcher.pl to retrieve information from Ingram's FTP server, we encountered this error message:

Can't locate object method "is_dir" via package "Net::FTP" at /openils/lib/perl5/OpenILS/Utils/RemoteAccount.pm line 614.

Checking at that line, we found that changing "is_dir" to be just plain "dir" eliminated the error and allowed us to successfully retrieve the files. Our version of Net::FTP is 2.77.

Can confirm this is also broken in 2.0.4 for EG Indiana

Pushed a fix for master here:

This minor edit also worked for our 2.0 systems.

I can't find a version of Net::FTP that spells dir() as is_dir() (or, indeed, contains an is_dir()) on the CPAN. I'll apply all around.

Aaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnd ... applied.
