Public bug reported:
man page shows:
-nd
--no-directories
Do not create a hierarchy of directories when retrieving
recursively. With this option turned on, all files will get saved
to the current directory, without clobbering (if a name shows up
more than once, the filenames will get extensions .n).
The way that's written implies that the -nd option would conflict with the -P
option. But when -nd is combined with --directory-prefix (-P), wget honors the
prefix and also downloads to a flat non-hierarchical "structure". The behavior
is sensible but the docs are wrong (-nd does not necessarily download to the
current dir).
** Affects: wget (Ubuntu)
