Summary: wget -nv outputs non-error output to stderr Project: GNU Wget Submitted by: nok Submitted on: Sa 23 Jul 2011 16:10:59 CEST Category: Program Logic Severity: 3 - Normal Priority: 5 - Normal Status: None Privacy: Public Assigned to: None Originator Name: Originator Email: Open/Closed: Open Discussion Lock: Any Release: 1.12 Operating System: GNU/Linux Reproducibility: Every Time Fixed Release: None Planned Release: None Regression: None Work Required: None Patch Included: No _______________________________________________________ Details: $ wget -nv ftp://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/dists/unstable/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz >/dev/null 2011-07-23 16:07:09 URL: ftp://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/dists/unstable/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz [9856388] -> "Packages.gz" [1] $ echo $? 0 That message was not an error (or warning), so it should not have been printed on stderr, but on stdout. Printing it on stderr makes it hard to filter out informative messages and keep the errors; if the errors and normal messages were separated to stderr and stdout respectively, a simple >/dev/null would work. http://bugs.debian.org/141323 _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?33839> _______________________________________________ Nachricht geschickt von/durch Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
