Yes, stupid me. After sending the bug report I discovered a devious '&' hiding inside the URL. And of course it does help to quote the URL in this case. In fact I stumbled upon this only because I was looking into spurious appearances of: | get: progress.c:1161: create_image: Assertion `count_cols (bp->buffer) <= bp->width' failed. | Abgebrochen which terminated wget 1.16-2. Now I see [1] and the example mentioned: | wget http://fly.osdn.org.ua/~mike/iso/tmp/live-flightgear-20141101-x86_64.iso with version 1.16-2 will trigger the assertion while version 1.16-1 would just download the file. I think for now a garbled progress bar is better than not downloading a file at all. So maybe it is better to revert the patch for bug #768110? Should I open a separate bug for the latter issue or would it be OK to hijack this one and just rename it?
