texi2pod isn't a separate package, but included in the wget distribution. It should be build by make. But it failed, that's the error message you got. Wget as a GNU software is developed to use GNU make and *BSD system uses (you guessed it) Berkeley (or BSD) make. You should install gmake (it's in ports) and run 'gmake' wherever the documentation says 'make' In general it's a good idea on *BSD systems to built on ports shared knowledge (even when you're no using it's build and installation system). Information like this is already recorded there (and even some patches). On my OpenBSD system: $ cd /usr/ports/net/wget $ make show=USE_GMAKE Yes $ ls patches/ CVS patch-configure_in patch-doc_wget.texi patch-configure patch-doc_Makefile.in > > -Andrew > > >On Sunday 04 November 2001 12:33, Andrew Coggins wrote: > >> erm, well I went to freshmeat, looked up wget, and followed the links. > >> http://www.freshmeat.net > >> > >> So, anyone able to help with my problem? :) > > > >Hi, I am also rather asker than answerer on this list.
