Details

Description:
since the update to 1.21.2 wget will send an 'SSL_INIT' to stderr, even with using the -q flag.

Additional info:
* package version(s): 1.21.1
* upstream bug report: https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?61125

Steps to reproduce:
wget -q https://www.google.com -O /dev/null

see on stderr:
SSL_INIT

Solution:
there is already a patch for this issue since about 1 month in the git repo: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/wget.git/patch/?id=3ea9658c072fa1dc87aec7af45393b46904b143f
Could we (maybe) add this patch to our package in the meanwhile, until a new release will appear of wget?
This task depends upon

wget has been out of date for whole months, and it looks like this has been fixed?

1.21.3 got released on February 26, fixing this issue. So there's now no need to backport the patch, just update the package to 1.21.3.

Before that the patch was sitting on the master branch for several months, waiting to be released.

If this still bugs you (like me) and you need a quickfix for wget-1.21.2-1 on x86_64:

# sed -i.orig -e 's#AW\xba\t#AW\xba\x00#' /usr/bin/wget
