Make options for wget
I mam trying to install wget from the command line without user intervention. So I devised something as follows:
Code:
cd /usr/ports/ftp/wget
make -DWITHOUT_GNUTLS=yes -DWITHOUT_IPV6=no -DWITHOUT_NLS=no -DWITHOUT_OPENSSL=no

However, this will still get me into the screen where user input is required. What would be the method of a silent install for wget?

Thank you for your information in advance

What does the wget readme file say about make configuration options?

Thank you for your response. There is no information in the manual about make options, and a wget readme file which I found on the web is an extract from the manual. The makefile contains the make options, which is how I got to the construct in my original post.

Since you want to compile wget with the default options, you can simply set the BATCH env. variable to "yes" and run make. In bash, for example, you could do something like:

BATCH="yes" make install distclean

@ph0enix: not sure how to interpret your suggestion, there is no BATCH configuration option for wget. If I try your suggestion literally, I am receiving "command not found errors"
