Re: [arch-general] pacman seems to leak ftp connections

After playing around i a throwaway-chroot, the problem seems to be libfetch >=2.30. I just modified the PKGBUILD to different versions (without replacing or rebuilding pacman at all).

Libfetch 2.26 fetches files without a problem, 2.30+ fails after downloading 5 files while MaxInstances in proftpd is set to 8. If I set MaxInstances to 3, downloading fails outright (also only for 2.30+), so something there seems to consume 3 connections before actually downloading something at all.

I'd try to break it down further, but NetBSDs CVS server isn't talking to me at the moment.

Ok maybe upate the bug with these results, so they have more information.
