[Bug 2122484] [NEW] Regression in wget 1.25.0, incorrectly logging to stderr in quiet mode

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Frode Nordahl (fnordahl):

There is a change in behavior in wget 1.25, causing it to output
"Prepended http:// to" on stderr when called using just an address or
DNS name, even when called with `-q` for quiet mode.

While I'm sure there are good intentions behind this change with
security in mind, it has real world effects on breaking in the wild
system test suites.

The offending change has since the release of 1.25.0 been fixed in [0].
