Update of bug #51181 (project wget):
Status: None => Confirmed
_______________________________________________________
Follow-up Comment #3:
>From the mailing list (21./22.5.2017):
If you use an explicit logfile (-o / --output-file), that code for
creating 'wget-log' isn't triggered.
It is a documented behavior, see 'man wget':
" -b
--background
Go to background immediately after startup. If no output
file is specified via the -o, output is redirected to wget-log.
"
Maybe the implementation was buggy and didn't match the docs - and since 1.19
it has been fixed ?
Anyways, we want to keep backward compatibility and if that change breaks
existing scripts, we should revert the change and change the docs (I am sure
people dislike that as well ;-)).
