    So I appended the line "quiet = on" to file "/etc/wgetrc" and that real-

    or a feature. Opinions?


    An interactive user should be able to see how long they are going to
    wait for a download to complete. That's why wget defaults to this.

    If users wish to not have that feedback, they can define FETCHCOMMAND in make.conf to contain the --quiet flag.
