 Hi there,

 Are you aware that **WP_Filesystem_FTPext** method **exists( $file )**
 only checks for existence of directory, giving file path as argument will
 always return false!


 `wp-admin/includes/class-wp-filesystem-ftpext.php`


 The original method code:


 {{{
 public function exists( $file ) {
         $list = ftp_nlist( $this->link, $file );

         if ( empty( $list ) && $this->is_dir( $file ) ) {
                 return true; // File is an empty directory.
         }

         return ! empty( $list ); // Empty list = no file, so invert.
 }
 }}}

 If you check the PHP manual for ftp_nlist it only accepts directory as
 input value.

 Any thoughts?
