OK, thanks. I did try using -override.hint with x86, but thought it had failed because of some residual complaints about the old versions that came back from calm. Anyway, lftp seems to be back on a regular release course now so I hope I'm done with override.hint for a while. Andrew

I've rebuilt and uploaded again with the same result. It seems that the advice I gave was wrong, and that '-override.hint' works, but an empty 'override.hint' is (silently) considered invalid (because it uses the same parser as other .hint files, which aren't expected to be empty) I've added some output so this failure isn't hidden, and added an item to improve the hint parser to my calm backlog. I renamed 'override.hint' to '-override.hint' and set the upload to retried, which seems to have succeeded. Sorry for the inconvenience.
