Description: ProFTPD module mod_vroot
 The purpose of this module to is to implement a virtual chroot
 capability that does not require root privileges.
 The mod_vroot module provides this capability by using ProFTPD's
 FS API. It also allows one to map a directory out of the user chroot
 as an alias in the chroot for sharing common directories.

Description: Versatile, virtual-hosting FTP daemon - binaries
 ProFTPD is a powerful modular FTP/SFTP/FTPS server. This File Transfer
 Protocol daemon supports also hidden directories, virtual hosts, and
 per-directory ".ftpaccess" files. It uses a single main configuration
 file, with a syntax similar to Apache.
 .
 Because of the advanced design, anonymous-FTP directories can have
 an arbitrary internal structure (bin, lib, etc, and special files are
 not needed). Advanced features such as multiple password files and
 upload/download ratios are also supported.
 .
 This package contains the daemon and all main modules used for
 common configurations. If you need database-centric authentication
 install the suitable proftpd-mod suggested package.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

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

[JORGETECH (jorgetech)]

I can also reproduce this bug in Ubuntu 20.04 LTS when running the command "sudo proftpd --configtest":

[Stephane Bakhos (sbakhos)]

This bug just affected me. Had to hand compile mod_vroot using the proftpd 1.3.6c sources

[NetVicious (netvicious)]

Bug it's yet unfixed on 20.04 LTS
