Hi FTP masters

libnet-easytcp-perl has security issues (CVE-2024-56830, note not the
same as CVE-2002-20002) where it fallsback to Perl's builtin rand() if
no strong randomization module is present, and Crypt::Random is not
packaged and used.

Furthermore is upstream basically unmaintained, the last version was
0.26 from 2004.

Additionally it has low popcon, so I think it is affordable for
removal.

Regards,
Salvatore
