Re: [Bug-wget] Wget keeps crashing on me

[Darshit Shah]

Hi William,

I'm not sure what the exact issue here is. But it indeed seems like the
issue lies somewhere in how your particular binary of Wget was built. I
can't reproduce the issue on my Linux system, and as Eli says he can't
reproduce it with his binaries either. Of course, he has linked to a much
older version of Wget, but if I understand right, he even has newer builds
available.

Anyways, could you please do the following for us:

1. Provide us with the output of `wget -V` so we know what the build was
like.
2. Provide us with a debug log (add --debug to your command line) of when
Wget crashes. This is essential for us to understand what is happening
3. Please ensure that all communication happens publicly on this mailing
list. Kindly do add (address@hidden) to all your replies.
