Hi all,

I have two different versions of wget on different FreeBSD 4.7 (upgraded)
servers.  They all run, but one of them:

# pkg_info -r wget-1.8.2_1

Information for wget-1.8.2_1:

Depends on:
Dependency: libiconv-1.8_1
Dependency: expat-1.95.5
Dependency: gettext-0.11.5_1

has problems with  the '--glob=on' option.  I use a script to download
McAfee files, the relevant line is:

/usr/local/bin/wget -nr --glob=on -N --passive-ftp
"ftp://ftp.nai.com/pub/antivirus/superdat/intel/sdat4???.exe"

Which when run gives:

-----------------------------------------------------------------
--21:19:27--  ftp://ftp.nai.com/pub/antivirus/superdat/intel/sdat4???.exe
           => `.listing'

Which when run using wget-1.7_3 I get:

           => `.listing'

21:21:45 (76.66 KB/s) - `.listing' saved [157]

Removed `.listing'.
Remote file no newer than local file `sdat4253.exe' -- not retrieving.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Which is ok, as I already have downloaded it.

My question is (eventually), has the globing function changed between the
different versions, or is the globing function broken?  Or am I missing
something deeper?

Cheers,

Paul Hamilton
