From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20020823 Netscape/7.0 Description of problem: version wget-1.8.2-4.73 fails the check for bad filenames It worked with the old version of wget, the one that didn't check for bad filenames. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.wget -m --accept tar "ftp://ftpeur.nai.com/pub/antivirus/datfiles/4.x/" 2. 3. Actual Results: ... Rejecting `42364237.upd'. Rejecting `dat-4237.zip'. Rejecting `delta.ini'. Rejecting `P2104123.z'. Rejecting `Palm.Ini'. Rejecting `readme.txt'. Rejecting `sdat4237.exe'. Rejecting `update.ini'. Segmentation fault (core dumped) Expected Results: The .tar file in the directory should have been retrieved. Additional info: I looks like that the patch wget-1.8.2-filename.patch should be change in line 49 from: + f = orig; to: + f = start; If the first loop in ftp_retrieve_glob removes the first element of the list, orig is no longer valid.
I can confirm this problem (i discovered the same thing using the -r switch). Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x0804ff00 in ftp_retrieve_glob () Problem non-existant in 1.8.1
I can't reproduce this. I've installed a fresh 7.3 and upgraded wget to the errata version. wget -m --passive-ftp --accept tar "ftp://ftpeur.nai.com/pub/antivirus/datfiles/4.x/" finishes without a problem (I had to use passive-ftp due to firewall restrictions, but that shouldn't matter here)
I think you might have been lucky that the "orig" pointer points to something useful, when you try the example.
