Installing wget on Mac OS X
Run the following from your terminal.
Download the compressed wget module (wget-x.x.x.tar.gz) with the curl command.
The curl -O option saves the output to a file with the same name as on the original system.
1 | sudo curl -O http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/wget/wget-1.13.4.tar.gz |
Extract
1 | sudo tar zxvf wget-1.13.4.tar.gz |
Move into the directory
1 | cd wget-1.13.4 |
Create the Makefile
A Makefile describes the results of checking the system-specific features and information required for the installation target.
1 | sudo ./configure –with-ssl=openssl |
If you don’t add the --with-ssl=openssl option, you’ll get an error like the following and won’t be able to install:
configure: error: –with-ssl was given, but GNUTLS is not available.
Compile the source files based on the Makefile
1 | sudo make |
Install
1 | sudo make install |
As a test, run the following, and if “index.html” gets downloaded, you’re all set!
1 | wget http://yahoo.co.jp |
