--- Comment #8 from Yann E. MORIN <yann.morin.1998@free.fr> ---
stsp, All,

Thanks for the report.

The menuconfig issue has been fixed with commit a6210d28db (kconfig/lxdialog:
fix check() with GCC14).

As for the wget issue, please refer to the release notes of your distribution:

    https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora/latest/release-notes/

Quoting:
    The wget command in Fedora 40 uses Wget2.

Amd a little trivial web-search turns up:
    https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Wget2asWget

And of course, it all quickly leads to:
    https://gitlab.com/gnuwget/wget2/-/wikis/Home#different-behavior-of-wget2

The current workaround is indeed to remove --passive-ftp from the wget command
line, but thisis not a vial long-term solution, because it means it is no
longer
possible to do ftp downloads (which although legacy, still exist). The proper
solution would be to contribute a patch that solves the issue.

I think a good solution would be two fold:
  - introduce a new download backend specifically for ftp
  - drop --passive-ftp from the default wget command line

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
