wget 1.16.2-1 does not work

wget 1.16.2-1 does not work

[Ulf-Dietrich Braumann]

Hi, just had updated wget to 1.16.2-1 on a WinXP 32bit box. However, when 
calling wget it did not return anything, not even the help message. Have 
returned to 1.16.1-1 which workes without problems - Regards - UDB

Thanks for the report.  I can't reproduce it locally (that is, 'wget
--help' works for me on both 32- and 64-bit cygwin). No help message
printed sounds like it might be a missing entry point in a dll.  To
confirm, can you run:

cygcheck /bin/wget

and see if it mentions any problems?

Meanwhile, upstream just released 1.16.3 today, to fix an upstream
regression introduced in 1.16.2, so I have to rebuild soon anyways. If
it was indeed a missing dll on your part, I can tweak the .hint file for
the next build to avoid the issue for the next user.

Thanks. I could reconfirm the problem on a Win2003 64bit running a 32bit 
Cygwin:

cygcheck apparently is not complaining:

$cygcheck /bin/wget
D:\cygwin\bin\wget.exe
   D:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll
     C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNEL32.dll
       C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll
   D:\cygwin\bin\cyggnutls-28.dll
     D:\cygwin\bin\cyghogweed-2.dll
       D:\cygwin\bin\cyggmp-10.dll
       D:\cygwin\bin\cygnettle-4.dll
         D:\cygwin\bin\cyggcc_s-1.dll
     D:\cygwin\bin\cygz.dll
     D:\cygwin\bin\cygiconv-2.dll
     D:\cygwin\bin\cygintl-8.dll
     D:\cygwin\bin\cygp11-kit-0.dll
       D:\cygwin\bin\cygffi-6.dll
     D:\cygwin\bin\cygtasn1-6.dll
   D:\cygwin\bin\cygidn-11.dll
   D:\cygwin\bin\cygpcre-1.dll
   D:\cygwin\bin\cyguuid-1.dll

Functionality for 1.16.2-1 is missing at all:

$wget
$

$wget --help
$


Once I revert back to wget 1.16.1-1 it works:

$wget
wget: missing URL
Usage: wget [OPTION]... [URL]...

Try `wget --help' for more options.
$

cygcheck output is identic with that for 1.16.2-1:

$cygcheck /bin/wget
D:\cygwin\bin\wget.exe
   D:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll
     C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNEL32.dll
       C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll
   D:\cygwin\bin\cyggnutls-28.dll
     D:\cygwin\bin\cyghogweed-2.dll
       D:\cygwin\bin\cyggmp-10.dll
       D:\cygwin\bin\cygnettle-4.dll

   D:\cygwin\bin\cygidn-11.dll
   D:\cygwin\bin\cygpcre-1.dll
   D:\cygwin\bin\cyguuid-1.dll

$wget --help
GNU Wget 1.16.1, a non-interactive network retriever.
Usage: wget [OPTION]... [URL]...

All other packages were updated today, including the emulation engine, of 
course.

Re: wget 1.16.2-1 does not work

[Ulf-Dietrich Braumann]

Hi, in the meantime I could fix the missing functionality of wget 1.16.2-1 
by simply giving a second try to (solely) upgrade wget from 1.16.1-1 to 
1.16.2-1. Suddenly a lot of packages wget 1.16.1-1 apparently was not 
depending on appeared on the resolving dependeny list (see below). So 
finally wget works again. As it seems, the mechanism to resolve these 
dependencies is not perfect yet (I had this trouble on two different 
cygwin installations), as during the first try to upgrade to 1.16.2-1 they 
were not included. Greetings - UD

None of these have anything to do with wget, they are the result of
making perl_vendor obsolete and splitting it into its individual
constituents.  But it might be that either the mirror you are using
was/is not fully up-to-date or you might be working through a (proxy)
cache that doesn't update correctly if you are having these problems
more often.

Achim.
