[Bug-wget] Re: Re: Re: Storing the URL in extended attributes
Hello Stefan Tomanek, Am 2010-10-18 23:11:58, hacktest Du folgendes herunter: Do you think SELinux, ACLs etc. are good ideas? They are based on the same principles. SELinux absolutely no. ACLs are only very rarely used by me. I had a filesystem with 15 U320 (230 MByte/sec) drives of 300 GByte, mean realy fast and expensive drives but with arround 180mio INODES it took more then 3 days to recover from a crash, since then I have stoped SELinux and ACL plus some other tools which write several million ZERO size files into the filesystem. The biggest problem was, I was not warned about this mess. Same for The Gimp and VLC, mean, I set the diretory permission to 000 and does not more allow to write to it. If a program crash because it can not write its crap, I deinstall it and will never recommend it to anyone.. Note: Programs which disallow to disable such things are crap. So for wget it should only be used if the user set explicite a commandline option or in the wgetrc. Of course, it should not activated hardcoded or as a default in the wgetrc.

Dear angry user, it's matter of configuration. You can compile curl/wget without a feature, you can disable it in system wide configuration file, a user can do the same in his own configuration file or explicitly in arguments of the utility. We can discuss what's ideal default option, you can talk about it with your operating system vendor or you can do it yourself (yes, Gentoo rules :). -- Petr pgpmfkoy6TeEI.pgp Description: PGP signature

Sorry, I fail to see how your stories affect the feature described and implemented in this patch.
