Comment 55 for bug 410288

Sebastien, bug #1416891 is about updating 12.04 LTS. to 1.20.3.
I sure would like to test it, but where can we get the fix?

The problem I see occurs when the server times out and closes the connection, looking like this on our side (netstat)
tcp 53 0 192.168.0.20:44879 xx.xxx.xxx.xxx:ftp CLOSE_WAIT
the 53 bytes to be read from the Recv-Q contain:
421 Timeout - try typing a little faster next time
gvfs-ftpd should close that connection (or read the bytes) but it tries to use it instead.
The operation gets an error and, depending on which it is, may or may not close the connection and clear the error.
The ls ~/.gvfs/FTP* command gets the connections in this state (input flushed and output blocked)
tcp 0 7 192.168.0.20:44879 62.210.182.224:ftp CLOSE_WAIT
This is not enough: the ls ~/.gvfs/FTP* command must be issued twice and the connection closes on second time.
