Dear Maintainer,

I am using gftp on ANTIX Linux on several machines - a convenient way to pull 
data
from an ANDROID PHONE, is to run the X-Plore File Manager on the phone as 
X-Plore
includes its own FTP server which is simple to enable.  I've used this for ages
and it is sound.  The root folder on an A40 is called Internal Shared Storage 
and
that folder is READONLY and reads fine through X-Plore's FTP service. 

The gftp I did this with on ANTIX 99 was version 2.0.19-4 and works PERFECTLY;

On a new install of ANTIX 22, gftp is at 2.7.0b-1;  trying the same exercise 
with
that version, the FTP connection itself connects fine: the Android folder lists 
OK;  

BUT as soon as I double-click Internal Shared Storage to open it and see 
folders below
the gftp REFUSES and breaks the connection.  

Testing on another laptop (Antix 19 with gftp 2.0.19-4) to same phone - works 
fine.

FORCE-Installed gftp  2.0.19-4 on the ANTIX 22 machine, FTP then WORKS FINE.

I understand 2.7.0b-1 is where gtk was brought in ?  so may be something to do 
with
those works.   

I see 2.9 is now latest / have not tried that yet. 

Tool is otherwise wonderful --[ THANK YOU to all the fine FOSS developers 
everywhere].
