Package: lftp
Version: 4.6.4-1
Severity: normal
I'm attempting to set options in the rc file, but when I put these in
~/.config/lftp/rc they are ignored. If I symlink ~/.config/lftp/rc to
~/.lftprc they are used.
Either remove the documentation of this location from the man page, or make
lftp look in this location.
Long-term, it would be good to move away from using dotfiles outside ~/.config
altogether. However, by default lftp creates ~/.lftp to store bookmarks and
log files.

I just checked with strace which files are checked:
$ strace lftp
...
access("/etc/lftp.conf", R_OK) = 0
access("/home/nk/.lftprc", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat("/home/nk/.lftp", 0x7ffc101f08e0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
mkdir("/home/nk/.config", 0755) = -1 EEXIST (File exists)
mkdir("/home/nk/.config/lftp", 0755) = -1 EEXIST (File exists)
access("/home/nk/.config/lftp/rc", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
gettimeofday({tv_sec=1501704688, tv_usec=36723}, NULL) = 0
open("/etc/lftp.conf", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK) = 4
...
And if I set something in .config/lftp/rc it works like expected:
--8<--
$ cat .config/lftp/rc
set prompt "lftp .config prompt"
$ lftp
lftp .config prompt
--8<--
With lftp 4.7.4 in stretch I can confirm your reported problem:
...
access("/etc/lftp.conf", R_OK) = 0
access("/home/nk/.lftprc", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat("/home/nk/.lftp", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0
access("/home/nk/.lftp/rc", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
gettimeofday({tv_sec=1501708236, tv_usec=927457}, NULL) = 0
open("/etc/lftp.conf", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK) = 4
...
and setting something in .config/lftp/rc does not work.

This has changed and are now found in .local/share/lftp/
Thanks for your report.
