Subject: [ITP] wget2 - fast multithreaded file and recursive website downloader
Date: Mon, 27 Sep 2021 16:18:56 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <b03098f8-72cf-91ff-81ee-499a729bb82c@SystematicSw.ab.ca> (raw)
wget2 2.0.0 is the official stable release of the successor of wget
supplying a shared library API like curl to build a modern, fast,
multithreaded, file and recursive website downloader using HTTP2, HTTP
compression, parallel connections, and If-Modified-Since HTTP headers.
The library provides the basic functions needed by a modern web client.
It is a replacement only for the HTTP functions of the original wget,
as it does not support FTP or other protocols, and no longer supports
some of the options of its predecessor.

with the Github Actions CI logs at:
https://github.com/cygwin/scallywag/actions/runs/1280151343
I have worked with upstream to get the package config, build, and tests
to run successfully, and the necessary patches are either in the
upstream repo or likely to be committed soon, and included in the next
release of wget2.
