Important note:
To reduce bandwidth and needless updates, the CVS tree does not
contain automatically generated files, even when those are normally
present in the distribution tarballs. All of these are recreated by
the build process, except for `configure', which is needed to start
the build in the first place.
To build Wget from the CVS sources, all you need aside from the normal
development tools (make, cc) is Autoconf, which you can get from
<http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/autoconf.html>.
For your convenience, the file Makefile.cvs will do the necessary
preparations, i.e. call autoconf. Invoke it with `make -f
Makefile.cvs'. All in all, the checkout and build process will
usually look like this:
$ cvs -d ... checkout wget
... CVS output ...
$ cd wget
$ make -f Makefile.cvs
... autoconf creates configure ...
$ ./configure
... Makefiles and config.h get built ...
$ make
