Product     : Fedora Core 2
Name        : wget
Version     : 1.9.1
Release     : 16.fc2
Summary     : A utility for retrieving files using the HTTP or FTP protocols.
Description :
GNU Wget is a file retrieval utility which can use either the HTTP or
FTP protocols. Wget features include the ability to work in the
background while you are logged out, recursive retrieval of
directories, file name wildcard matching, remote file timestamp
storage and comparison, use of Rest with FTP servers and Range with
HTTP servers to retrieve files over slow or unstable connections,
support for Proxy servers, and configurability.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This new release of wget adds support for large files >2Gb

Please test if the following works (make sure that your web/ftp
server supports large files):

- downloads of files smaller / larger than 2Gb
  via http and ftp
- continue aborted downloads smaller / larger 2Gb
  via http and ftp

Add your feedback to http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=123524

If I hear of no larger problems until Thu Nov 04, this package will be
released as an update for Fedora Core 2.

  Thanks
      Karsten
