sean.obrien added a comment to T688: Rename PureBrowser to Firefox.

it's worth questioning our assumptions in cases like this, and luckily I had just been in a discussion about this very thing with a PureOS user, looked up the policy, and can't find anything restricting us from doing that. I will contact Mozilla on Friday trademark-permissions@mozilla.com if there are no objections, but it's best to let this sit for a while.

Okay, if your hosting plan does not offer SSH, then as you say SFTP (and also SCP which is secure copy and uses SSH for data transfer) won't work. SSH is likely more secure however if configured correctly but perhaps you have no control over the plan your ISP offers you.

anonymized01 added a comment to T684: GnuTLS error when connecting over FTPS with Filezilla.

Thank you for your reply.
I don't know for SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol) because my hosting plan doesn't include this option so I can't test it or use it. FTPS is different: this is FTP over TLS/SSL (so basically a secured regular FTP). I don't know SCP.
Yes I didn't catch all the implication of these GnuTLS/FileZilla issues and as you said I think this should be dealt with on the FileZilla side.
Should we raise this to FileZilla dev?

jeremiah.foster added a comment to T684: GnuTLS error when connecting over FTPS with Filezilla.

I don't think this is related to PureOS packaging because we tend not to change upstream Debian packages except where necessary. I'll take a closer look, but I don't really understand the key issue. I see that libgnutls is going to change, but will that fix the problem? It appears they're only going to turn it into a no-op, so won't we need a new FileZilla that brings back in the functionality somehow? What about other protocols like SFTP (or is that the same as FTPS?) or SCP?

If you add e.g. Debian to the apt sources, e.g. cause you need some Debian non-free package which of course is a bad bad bad thing on PureOS, you get some Contents files which were mentioned above - then a commands.db will be created, but for these Contents files only.
