I attached a patch which should update lftp to 3.7.0. It works fine on 10.4 but I can't check it with 10.5. It looks like the patch for the Leopard poll problem is no longer necessary, but I can't verify this.

I can confirm lftp 3.7.0 works on 10.5 as well without any problems, please commit the updated Portfile and remove the unneeded patch file :)

Simon,

Thanks for the update.

/jpo

FYI: At least in Leopard lftp 3.7.0 still uses more CPU than cyberduck :(.

Top output from a 3GB ISO image download with both programs:

lftp -> aprox. 60 %CPU cyberduck -> aprox. 45 %CPU

Platform: Mac OS X 10.5.2 (Leopard)
