There's a 32 letter switch to tell wget not to convert filenames to names that are invalid in the current locale? Taking valid filenames and mangling them to be invalid is not acceptable. > Wget isn't > anybody's job, which means that you are not anyone's customer. That's the esprit de corps! Dismiss people frustrated with data corruption bugs that have been open for years! Demand they offer patches when there's no evidence any is interested in fixing it! 14 years ago, Debian made it release-critical for Hamm to break 8-bit data; if the program didn't work, it got removed. Is it not too much to expect that people running the most common locale charset should not have their data corrupted by Debian programs? -- Kie ekzistas vivo, ekzistas espero. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
