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:
wget should configure and found OpenSSL, then make:
wget made out. Install wget:
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.
Old way:
Then put cert.pem to: “/usr/local/ssl/cert.pem”
DONE: It should be all right now.
Solution no. 3:
You need to do
./configure –with-ssl=openssl –with-libssl-prefix=/usr/local/ssl
Instead of this
./configure –with-ssl=openssl
