I've been using wget-1.9.1 and noticed that I'm unable to dounload some
files from one server. I've tried lots of ways round modifing the HTTP
request and using the -d option. And finally I've found the resone of
failure. Wget compress multiple slashes in the url path into one. After
this path modification http server tells that 302 Found. But with the
original path everything is ok.
I think the problem is that wget simplify the path and use it in the
HTTP request, and the solution will be to always use the original path
for requests and to use simplified path for local operations
(directories creation). This requires some reengeniering to be
implemented. But please do it.
