Bug#1103154: proftpd-core: modules mod_ls and mod_xfer are not compiled in core

[Sylvain Faivre]

Package: proftpd-core
Version: 1.3.8.c+dfsg-2
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: sylvainfaivre at gmail.com

Dear Maintainer,

According to the changelog entry for 1.3.8.b+dfsg-3, mod_delay, mod_ls, mod_xfer should be in core modules, but they aren't.

Trixie box :
$ > proftpd -l
Compiled-in modules:
  mod_core.c
  mod_rlimit.c
  mod_auth_unix.c
  mod_auth_file.c
  mod_auth.c
  mod_log.c
  mod_site.c
  mod_facts.c
  mod_dso.c
  mod_auth_pam.c
  mod_cap.c
  mod_ctrls.c
  mod_lang.c

Bullseye box :
$ > proftpd -l
Compiled-in modules:
  mod_core.c
  mod_xfer.c
  mod_rlimit.c
  mod_auth_unix.c
  mod_auth_file.c
  mod_auth.c
  mod_ls.c
  mod_log.c
  mod_site.c
  mod_delay.c
  mod_facts.c
  mod_dso.c
  mod_auth_pam.c
  mod_cap.c
  mod_ctrls.c
  mod_lang.c

This causes some config directives to make proftpd fail to start. For example : TimeoutNoTransfer, TimeoutStalled
I suppose there is also missing runtime functionality, but I didn't test further.
