A fresh install of ftpd-ssl comes up with the following error message:

# ftp localhost
Connected to localhost.
Error loading /etc/ftpd-ssl/ftpd.pem: 139901149021864:error:02001002:system
library:fopen:No such file or
directory:bss_file.c:398:fopen('/etc/ftpdssl/ftpd.pem','r')

I don't yet know if this disrupts functionality, but it does look unintended.

Ciao,

After a fresh install of ftpd-ssl ther is no connection from remote
possible due to this bug.
Also my remote client reports this error in the error message

It is in my opinion far better not to generate a default
certificate at first install time, than to produce something
prone to be an attack vector. Therefore the next packaging of
ftpd-ssl will include some informational messages to inform
about the missing certificate, and will also contribute an
elementary discription for manual remedy of this fact.

The bug will remain present for documental purposes.
