Hi,
Please use bug-wget@gnu.org in the future for questions and help. It has
a wider audience who will answer your questions.
About your problem, we are aware of it. It happens because upstream
gnulib project wants defaults to Wget for downloading the translation
files. It is however possible to resolve the bootstrapping issue by
running `./bootstrap --skip-po`; which will build Wget without any
translations.
If you do care about the translations, you need a 2 stage build to first
build Wget without translations and use that to bootstrap the Wget with
translations

I am trying to build and install wget on macOS catalina (fresh installed)
with source from savannah repo.
Fresh macOS does not have the wget command.
But bootstrap needs wget cmd like below:
hoge@hoge wget % ./bootstrap --gnulib-srcdir=/src/git/gnulib
./bootstrap: Bootstrapping from checked-out wget sources...
./bootstrap: getting gnulib files...
./bootstrap: getting translations into po/.reference for wget...
./bootstrap: line 738: wget: command not found
Please tell me why wget is requied to build it from source and how can I
run bootrap without wget cmd (or with curl)?
Thanks.
Tomon
