Updated perl-Net-FTPSSL to 0.25:
Warning: this is a major upgrade and may not be 100% backwards compatible with existing code; also, the response() redesign may not work for all FTPS servers (it's a work in progress, so comments are welcome)!
Upgraded the minimum version of IO-Socket-SSL required from v1.08 to v1.26 so that I could remove the warnings in the POD for ccc()
Modified the Synopsis to use Croak since no one was reading my comments about using it too closely anyway
Added a new pattern for uput() to check for file names with; also fixed to guarantee it will never return any path info, just the base file name itself (this change may break existing programs)
Another hack to recover from a garbled CCC response, to prevent unnecessary warnings
Hit a weird FTP server that requires me to flip flop the binary/ASCII settings on the server/client (see mixedModeAI() and mixedModeIA())
Added a way to print Perl warnings to the log file (trapWarn); it will chain things if warnings were already trapped (even between multiple open Net::FTPSSL object logs)
Added get_log_filehandle() to allow someone to gain access to the open filehandle used to write to the log file generated when Debug is turned on and you specified a log file via DebugLogFile
Now allows DebugLogFile to be an open file handle (GLOB)
Fixed quot() to echo the command if it's one of those disallowed; also now strips off any leading spaces from the command before using it
Use "sub DESTROY" rather than "sub END" for objects (just a FYI); surprise, surprise - sometimes END is called before DESTROY is
Moved some logic out of quit() into the new DESTROY() method; no longer need to hack object termination logic via quit()
Added END to handle final clean up for trapWarn()
Fixed warnings in function _feat() caused by strange server returns
Fixed warnings in function _help() caused by strange server returns
Fixed 20-certificate.t bug where $ENV{HOME} is not defined for all OS
Fixed 10-complex.t to use the new warning logic
Fixed 20-certificate.t to use the new warning logic
Fixed t/10-complex.t and t/20-certificate.t to use a 30-second Timeout instead of using the default 2 minutes
Reworked response() with regard to CPAN RT#97608 (related to CPAN RT#73115); had to redesign how this method worked - it was getting too convoluted to fix any further and this was the only way to properly fix _help and _feat
Second issue for CPAN RT#97608 was an issue with very long login messages that hit an unexpected Timeout issue (last release enhancement); turns out the Timeout logic in response() didn't always work properly if you didn't read in the entire response via a single call to sysread()
This rewrite of response() broke the ccc() hack, so had to redesign how this hack worked as well (may break existing programs using CCC)
Added special case Debug=>99 for more detailed logging for debugging the new response code base in the future
Added new environment variable (FTPSSL_DEBUG_LEVEL) to t/10-complex.t to enable low level debugging of the new response() code
Updated the SSL_Advanced deprecated warning that it will soon be removed in a future release
