I am looking for a debian download manager which can watch folders on a remote FTP site and download new files to my computer locally. This is a one way operation and not a sync, I simply need to get files from my transmission (torrent) folder on remote FTP downloaded locally automatically.
Thanks

Consider using curlftpfs (there is a debian package). It allows you to mount a remote FTP directory to a local one and copy files from a FTP resource to a local directory just as you copy regular files (using

for example). Anyway you have to write a simple script that will be executed periodically (even if you decide to use a ftp client (there is a bunch of them) - it is likely you have to run it from a script with passing certain parameters like login and password).
