The latest vsftpd release is v3.0.5, currently at https://security.appspot.com/downloads/vsftpd-3.0.5.tar.gz
When downloading, always check the GPG signatures, of course! https://security.appspot.com/downloads/vsftpd-3.0.5.tar.gz.asc
Releases are infrequent since bug reports are infrequent at this time. Also, the FTP protocol is sunsetting, which is probably not a terrible thing.

What is vsftpd in linux
Я думаю есть такие шансы, если добавить его в manpages-ru к примеру, только я смотрю этот пакет не очень активно развивается сегодня:
Package manpages-ru
* sarge (oldstable) (doc): Russian translations of Linux manpages
0.7d-3: all
* etch (stable) (doc): Russian translations of Linux manpages
0.98-4: all
* etch-m68k (doc): Russian translations of Linux manpages
0.98-4: all
* lenny (testing) (doc): Russian translations of Linux manpages
0.98-4: all
* sid (unstable) (doc): Russian translations of Linux manpages
0.98-4: all
А это идея — добавить man по vsftpd и довести пакет до версии 1.0.

Перевод нуждается в серьезной корректировке. Например, пункт касающийся «chroot_local_user» переведён с точностью до наоборот. |
chroot_local_user Вижу: This option has security implications (носит характер безопасности), Какие еще недароботки вы нашли, возможно предложите свой вариант перевода по этой опции? |
