Bug Description

Please backport filezilla 3.7.3-1ubuntu1 (universe) from trusty to saucy.

Reason for the backport:
========================
the current filezilla 5.3.5 in ubuntu 12.04 LTS precise has a bug
with explicit FTP over TLS, limiting the maximum upload file size.
The only workaround is to use unencrypted connections, but this is
a security issue of course. The bug is already fixed in newer versions of
filezilla since 3.6.0.2. The filezilla bug report is here:
http://trac.filezilla-project.org/ticket/7287

Testing:
========
Mark off items in the checklist [X] as you test them, but please leave the checklist so that backporters can quickly evaluate the state of testing.
you can test-build the backport in your PPA with backportpackage:
$ backportpackage -u ppa:<lp username>/<ppa name> -s trusty -d saucy filezilla

* saucy:
[ ] Package builds without modification
[ ] filezilla-common installs cleanly and runs
[ ] filezilla installs cleanly and runs

No reverse dependencies

Nice description. I found it. I experienced same problem on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Some minutes ago I had just downloaded the binary package from filezilla.org to avoid this and and it works fine. I think it would be nice to update FileZilla package in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, because it is really annoying to install FileZilla on each client here in Network manually.

Changed in filezilla:
status: Unknown → Fix Released
