    An update that has one recommended fix can now be installed.

    Description:


    This update for lftp provides the following fixes:

    - Allow lftp to recover gracefully when IPv6 support is disabled. The lftp
    client prefers IPv6 addresses by default, but if IPv6 support is
    disabled in the kernel (i.e. by setting systcl
    net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1), then lftp would abort with an error
    rather than falling back to the target machine's IPv4 address.
