------------------------------------

Package:	wget	
Issue Date: 	March 14, 2002	
Priority:	low		
Advisory ID: 	YDU-20020314-2


1. 	Topic:

	Updated wget packages are available.


2. 	Problem:

	The version of wget that shipped with Yellow Dog Linux 2.2
	would sometimes segfault when downloading from ftp or http
	sites.

3. 	Solution:

   	a) Updating via yup...
   	We suggest that you use the Yellow Dog Update Program (yup)
   	to keep your system up-to-date. The following command(s) will
   	automatically retrieve and install the fixed version of
   	this update onto your system:

   		yup update wget

   	b) Updating manually...
   	The update can also be retrieved manually from our ftp site
   	below along with the rpm command that should be used to install
   	the update.  (Please use a mirror site)

   		ftp://ftp.yellowdoglinux.com/pub/yellowdog/updates/yellowdog-2.2/ppc/
		rpm -Fvh wget-1.8.1-4.ppc.rpm
