Package: proftpd
Version: 1.2.10-27
Severity: wishlist

Proftpd needs to know the ip address to use with passive transfers at
startup. This is a problem when having a dynamic ip, as the provider
sometimes change it on the fly. There is a module named mod_dynmasq avaiable in
http://www.castaglia.org/proftpd/ wich allows to refresh the ip if given
as a hostname, very useful for people with dynamic ip and dynamic dns.
So, could you compile this module (or some other with the same
functionality) in the debian packages. 

I find it useful to be included in the package since proftpd does not
support runtime module loading as (for example) apache does and one has
to recompile it for every upgrade.
