Hello The problem occurs in version 1.8.2. I don't know if this is an old issue. But I did not manage to find a changelog for wget anywhere.
Someone on the suse-mailinglist spotted that downloading by typing "wget -k -r -P/tmp URL" leads to some strange behaviour. All links start with href="/tmp/...." then. So they have absolute paths. This makes it impossible to copy the directory anywhere else without making all links broken. I think wget should convert links to relative paths like being called without "-P" in the prefix directory. Otherwise the movability of pages downloaded with -k gets lost. At least there should be a hint in the man-page or the weird info-stuff that -P in conjunction with -k may not lead to the expected result. -- Axel Heinrici
