For macOS Sierra, to build wget 1.18 from source with Xcode 8.2.
Install Xcode
Build OpenSSL
Since Xcode doesn't come with OpenSSL lib, you need build by yourself. I found this: https://github.com/sqlcipher/openssl-xcode, follow instruction and build OpenSSL lib. Then, prepare your OpenSSL directory with "include" and "lib/libcrypto.a", "lib/libssl.a" in it.
Let's say it is: "/Users/xxx/openssl-xcode/openssl", so there should be "/Users/xxx/openssl-xcode/openssl/include" for OpenSSL include and "/Users/xxx/openssl-xcode/openssl/lib" for "libcrypto.a" and "libssl.a".
Build wget
Go to wget directory, configure:
./configure --with-ssl=openssl --with-libssl-prefix=/Users/xxx/openssl-xcode/openssl
wget should configure and found OpenSSL, then make:
make
wget made out. Install wget:
make install
Or just copy wget to where you want.
Configure cert
You may find wget cannot verify any https connection, because there is no CA certs for the OpenSSL you built. You need to run:
New way:
If you machine doesn't have "/usr/local/ssl/" dir, first make it.
ln -s /etc/ssl/cert.pem /usr/local/ssl/cert.pem
Old way:
security find-certificate -a -p /Library/Keychains/System.keychain > cert.pem
security find-certificate -a -p /System/Library/Keychains/SystemRootCertificates.keychain >> cert.pem
Then put cert.pem to: "/usr/local/ssl/cert.pem"
DONE: It should be all right now.
