[Bug-wget] [bug #54963] wget -c treats a 416 response as a failure

[Tim Ruehsen]

Update of bug #54963 (project wget):

             Assigned to:                    None => rockdaboot

Follow-up Comment #2:

robots.txt is an exception regarding 416 responses. It will always be fully
retrieved (have to find the reason in the ML archives yet).

Try the same with
`wget -d -c -t 1 https://brage.info/wget-bug.txt`
and you'll see

"The file is already fully retrieved; nothing to do."

But this exception seems not to be documented... I leave this open until the
docs have been updated.

Thanks for the report.
