Using lftp to download backups via FTP, retaining recent backups on host

I have a need to download files via FTP from a host, deleting old backups on 
the host but retaining recent ones. In other words, we want to archive all 
backups off the host, and only leave the last one or two days of backups on 
the host.

I have never used lftp before but it looked like I could so something like this:

- Download (using "mirror -c") all files more than 2 days old 
(--older-than=2days), deleting them on success (--remove-source-files)
- Download again but without the --older-than and --remove-source-files 
switches to download everything else, without deleting it

This works on day 1, but when it runs the next day it skips the files it 
already has and doesn't delete them (even if they're now more than 2 days old).

Is this by design, or a bug? Is there a way to work around this?

I'm using the version in the Ubuntu 12.04 LTS repositories (4.3.3) if that 
makes a difference.

getenv issue

Hello, Alexander.

I've recently begun to use lftp, it works great!

But I found lftp ignores getenv() return value, this causes
segmentation fault, while lftp invoked on no 'TERM' environment
variable, such as cron job.

Here is a simple patch.

Thank you!

slash at the end of path in cwd command

Hello,
I have some special server witch waiting for '/' (slash) at the end of 
directory path during 'cd' execution.

 lftp SYSTEM <at> 10.34.105.9:~> cd /DW1-/
cd: Access failed: 550 "/DW1-" : No such directory or permission denied.

Does it posible to send '/' slash at the end of directory name?
(As I see some ftp client done it.)

Probably the wording of that description should be changed, as 1 means
"no retries".

Polish translation update and encoding fix for lftp 4.4.6

Hello,

I've just updated Polish translation for lftp 4.4.6.

Also note that pl.po included in lftp 4.4.6 is incorrectly recoded to
UTF-8 (assuming input in iso-8859-1 instead of iso-8859-2 and without
charset update in header).

The updated translation, properly recoded to UTF-8, is available at:
http://qboosh.pl/pl.po/lftp-4.4.6.pl.po

Please apply.
