User Notes: http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/wget
Install Wget by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr \ --sysconfdir=/etc \ --with-ssl=openssl && make
To test the results, issue: make check.
HTTPS tests are known to fail if Perl module IO::Socket::INET6 is installed.
Now, as the root
user:
make install
--sysconfdir=/etc
: This
relocates the configuration file from /usr/etc
to /etc
.
--with-ssl=openssl
: This
allows the program to use openssl instead of GnuTLS-3.7.0.
--enable-valgrind-tests
: This allows
the tests to be run under valgrind.
