Is it possible that you can give the name of this FTP server either in this bug report or privately, so I can test it? I do not currently run debian myself, but I just tested ELinks 0.11.2 (which should be no different from 0.11.1 in this respect) on some of the debian DVD iso mirrors and it shows the 4GB DVD isos just fine in the directory listings. > I suspect that Elinks uses 32-bit arithmetic, sees a file between > 2 GB and 4 GB as having a negative size and choses to sweep it > under the carpet for fear of looking ridiculous. "Large file" support and use of off_t was something that we worked hard to improve during the 0.11 development cycle, however it is entirely possible that we did not weed out all bugs. Also, the FTP directory listings parser was also rewriten due to license issues, so it can also be caused by the FTP server giving ELinks a line that it chooses to discard (it will only warn about this if you build with --enable-debug). Asking you to do this is too much to ask so I'd rather have the possibility to test it myself. -- Jonas Fonseca -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
