./net/wget, Retrieve files from the net via HTTP and FTP

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]


Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.24.5, Package name: wget-1.24.5, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

Wget [formerly known as Geturl] is a freely available network utility
to retrieve files from the World Wide Web using HTTP and FTP, the two
most widely used Internet protocols. It works non-interactively, thus
enabling work in the background, after having logged off.

The recursive retrieval of HTML pages, as well as FTP sites is
supported -- you can use Wget to make mirrors of archives and home
pages, or traverse the web like a WWW robot (Wget understands
/robots.txt).

Log message:
wget: update to 1.24.5.

* Noteworthy changes in release 1.24.5 (2024-03-10) [stable]

** Fix how subdomain matches are checked for HSTS.
   Fixes a minor issue where cookies may be leaked to the wrong domain

** Wget will now also parse the srcset attribute in <source> HTML tags

** Support reading fetchmail style "user" and "passwd" \ 
fields from netrc

** In some cases, prevent the confusing "Cannot write to... (success)" \ 
error messages

** Support extremely fast download speeds (TB/s).
   Previously this would cause Wget to crash when printing the speed

** Improve portability on OpenBSD to run the test suite

** Ensure that CSS URLs are corectly quoted (Bug: 64082)
