Bug Description
vsftpd 3.0.3-3ubuntu1 is stuck in xenial-proposed because it's failing its autopkgtests.
The reason for the autopkgtest failure is straightforward; vsftpd is failing to start on installation.
$ systemctl status vsftpd.service
● vsftpd.service - vsftpd FTP server
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/

Manually running the command from the service file fails with:
$ sudo /usr/sbin/vsftpd /etc/vsftpd.conf
500 OOPS: vsftpd: not configured for standalone, must be started from inetd

This is due to debian/

I have been working on parallel on this one & opened a bug in debian : http:// bugs.debian. org/cgi- bin/bugreport. cgi?bug= 819546
listen_ipv6 was reverted from YES to NO following Debian Bug: #803999 to allign with the manpage statement.
Either we revert it back & adapt the manpage or we force it in the systemd unit & document accordingly
