Subject: [PATCH] gnu: Add proftpd
Date: Mon, 14 Apr 2025 21:00:11 +0300

Notes:
1. "no-install-user.patch" is stolen from nixpkgs
2. By default it looks for ScoreboardFile file in $output/var/<scoreboard-file> and won't find it
3. By default tries to setup PidFile in $CWD/var/proftpd.pid
4. By default mod_delay.c is on and proftpd looks for DelayTable file in $output/var/share

Example configuration that disables all of that above:
#+begin_src conf
  ServerName "Secure FTP Server"
  ServerType standalone
  DefaultServer on
  ScoreboardFile off # won't find $output/var/<scoreboard-file>
  PidFile /var/proftpd.pid # will try to launch in $CWD/var/proftpd.pid


  # http://proftpd.org/docs/modules/mod_delay.html#DelayTable
  <IfModule mod_delay.c> # won't find delaytable in $output/var/share
    DelayEngine off # very minor security consern
  </IfModule>
#+end_src
