Package: gftp-text
Version: 2.0.18-15
Severity: minor

Hi Aurelien,
First of all, thanks for your work packaging gftp-text. it's an
excellent program.

Steps to reproduce the segfault:

* type: gftp-text ftp.mozilla.org
* press Enter
* at the username prompt, type: jasonspiro
* press Enter
* at the password prompt, do not type anything, just press Enter again.

The app then segfaults in g_utf8_validate (str=0x0, max_len=-1,
end=0x0) at gutf8.c:1561 which is part of /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0.
The problem also happens on other sites, including ftp.jspiro.com, but
not on ftp.aol.com.

I have marked this as "Severity: minor" because most people do not set
blank FTP passwords, and this issue does not affect anonymous logins.
I am on Debian testing, last fully dist-upgraded about 3 months ago.
GDB transcript follows.

Cheers,
Jason Spiro
