    Because otherwise it doesn't work ;))

    I was trying to download Fedora (the new RedHat):

    wget -nH -nd 
"ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/beta/severn/en/iso/i386/severn-i386-disc2.iso";

    (no, I'm not stupid - well, only a bit - I'm downloading it for a
friend and another friend has downloaded part 1...). If I do the
above with 'page_requisites=on', it doesn't work. If I set it to
'off' or change the command line to 'wget -r -nH -nd...', it works
again and starts downloading. If you want my wgetrc just tell, but if
I delete entirely the wgetrc and do the above with '-p', it doesn't
work except if I pass '-r' too.

    Thanks, Hrvoje, for your help. I think it's something I'm doing
bad... I haven't build wgetrc with debugging support, but I can do if
it helps.
