Topic: wget in busybox

I have wget Segmentation fault when I use it to update my ddns info to my ddns provider, the wget came from busybox. After I installed tht ipkg one with -force-overwrite option, it works fine.
Now, I want to disable the one in the busybox to save a little bit space for my poor 4mb flash, but unlucky there is no option to unselect wget in busybox from "make menuconfig", anyone have any idea how to unselect wget in busybox? Many thanks!

Yes. The Busybox wget is crap. Fix this by simply installing the full version of wget with 'ipkg -force-overwrite install wget-nossl' or 'ipkg -force-overwrite install wget' if you need wget with SSL support. The wget package which includes support for SSL depends on zlib and libopenssl.

The discussion might have continued from here.
