I am done testing this patch and it seems to work with a bunch of different ftp \
servers I tried so far. I tested with whatever ftp.kde.org runs, the android ftp \
server that was the source of this fix and both pro-ftpd and vsftpd servers on my own \
machines. If there are no objections, I am going to commit this after the beta2 is \
out ; so it can go in for the next beta release.

  <pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: \
-pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">This is surely wrong.

If you&#39;re in /home/dfaure (as the CWD would be, by default, on non-anonymous FTP)
and you&#39;re downloading a file /home/dfaure/dir1/dir2/file.txt
then surely you want to call

SIZE dir1/dir2/file.txt

and not

SIZE home/dfaure/dir1/dir2/file.txt


It has to be relative to the CWD, not just &quot;skip the first slash&quot;, which \
only works if the CWD is &quot;/&quot;.


This gives two alternatives for the fix: make this code relative to the current CWD \
whatever it is, or call ftpFolder() with the directory name (e.g. \
/home/dfaure/dir1/dir2) followed by SIZE with just the filename. The latter sounds \
like it might work better on android (if it doesn&#39;t support absolute paths, maybe \
it doesn&#39;t support ../../foo/bar.txt either?).</pre>  </blockquote>
