this is the response i got back from Ángel González <[email protected]>
There's an option available for that: --trust-server-names wget --trust-server-names http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/webadmin/webmin/1.510/webmin_1.510-2_all.deb?use_mirror=kent will give you the webmin_1.510-2_all.deb filename that you expect. Note however that when using --trust-server-names a malicious server could also provide you with a bad filename such as .profile which could get executed automatically when downloaded in home. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/752532 Title: wget filename should (optionally) not include query part of URL -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
