Update gftp to 2.0.15, provide a Makefile.common for the upcoming
package of gftp which uses GTK+ version 1. Actually this package uses GTK+ version 2. Ok'ed by wiz@ Changes (resumed): Changes from 2.0.15rc2 to 2.0.15 * FTP: Fixes for selecting ASCII/Binary transfers * Fixed crash when deleting files in the GTK+ port * Fixed parsing directory listings that have timestamps that are not in the current locale. * More largefile support fixes. * Updated translations (cs, pl, sr, sr@Latn, sv) Changes from 2.0.15rc1 to 2.0.15rc2 * Largefile (>2.1GB) fixes. * When resuming files, look up the right option name. gFTP would bail out whenever it couldn't look up the right option. * Fixes to the permissions of files when they are first transfered. New files are created with the mode 0644 & ~umask. * Change to the proper local directory when one was enabled with a bookmark. * Fixed crash that would occur in the options dialog when you hit Apply, then OK. * Fixed possible division by 0 when transfering a file. * Fixed double free of a gftp_file structure member (utf8_file). This was not present in 2.0.14. * FreeBSD PTY and password prompt fixes. * Detect write errors properly. * Added --info argument to the command line. This will give some information about how gFTP was compiled. Changes from 2.0.14 to 2.0.15rc1 * I18N improvements in GTK+ 2.0 port. If the remote server is not returning output in UTF8, it will first attempt to convert it from the local character set and if that fails it will try the character sets listed in the remote_charsets option. * Added an improved internal configuration interface. You can now override just about any option in the bookmarks dialog for a particular site. * Each protocol that gFTP supports is now completely self contained in it's own file. So, if gFTP doesn't support your favorite protocol, it should be pretty easy to add support ... Please review the long list of changes here: http://gftp.seul.org/changelog.html
