already-generated wget.1 manual. The command "make check" runs the
test suite written in perl and python (see below). To execute all the tests
you need [24]libwww-perl and libio-socket-ssl-perl perl library. If
"perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::LWP'" fails then you most likely don't
have cpan module installed. First download [25]CPAN and [26]install it.

you need libwww-perl and libio-socket-ssl-perl perl library.
GNU/Linux distros likely have these two libraries packaged.
If not, install them directly with "perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::LWP'"[24].
If that fails then you most likely don't have the CPAN module installed.
First download [25]CPAN and [26]install it, then try again the above command.
Now "make check" should pass most of the tests in the test suite.
