MLST issues

Looks like uftpd's MLST support is buggy. Details: elfmz/far2l#1067 (comment)
Thanks for letting me know, and sorry for the late reply! I'm entering a new release cycle with uftpd and I'll have a look at it.
Reproduced with tnftp in Linux Mint. Seems to be localized to MLST, MLSD works ... at least with ncftp. Will continue testing and see if I can get this fix into the v2.14 release, which I've planned for this coming weekend.
Can't test on Ubuntu 18.04:
curl -sS https://deb.troglobit.com/pubkey.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb [arch=amd64] https://deb.troglobit.com/debian stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/troglobit.list
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install uftpd ↑
...
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
uftpd : Depends: libc6 (>= 2.28) but 2.27-3ubuntu1.4 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Source is available. I have no means to support all possible deb targets.
i tried recent master and seems it fixed now, however another (new) issue appeared: each file is listed twice in LIST command. Server ran by ./uftpd -n -o ftp=2222 /home/user on machine 192.168.1.X, connecting with netcat from another machine to it:
$nc 192.168.1.X 2222
220 uftpd (2.14) ready.
user anonymous
230 Guest login OK, access restrictions apply.
PASV 192,168,1,X
227 Entering Passive Mode (192,168,1,X,215,169)
LIST
125 Data connection already open; transfer starting.
226 Transfer complete.
.. and another netcat connected just after PASV command responce:
$ nc 192.168.1.X 55209

Although command line ftp client shows only single file, likely it 'deduplicates' them internally. FileZilla for Windows however also shows duplicated entries in list.
Too early assumed that MLST works, it works only for directories, but always fails for files. Here is log from netcat to uftpd:
$ nc 192.168.1.X 2222
220 uftpd (2.14) ready.

Dammit, OK reopening 😞
Reproduced both issues, files listed twice, and mlst not working on files. Naturally the new one needs to go in its own bug report as a regression introduced in the latest release. I'll see what I can do over the next couple of days.
Thank you all for testing and reporting back!
OK @elfmz, I've just pushed a bunch of changes to master which seem to fix the issues you reported. I'll probably do the v2.15 release later tonight, but I can postpone it if you'd like to help verify it first. Which I'd be very grateful for, of course! 😃
Didnt tested really throughfully, but current master looks now OK - both last issues not reproduced.
Awesome, thank you for testing it out! <3
