If you get a binary kit for a program like
wget, and if your C compiler and/or run-time
environment differ from those on the system
where the kit was produced, then you may
reasonably expect problems like these. The
simplest solution is often to build the
program from its source instead of trying to
use a binary kit. If nothing else, this
tends to provide more helpful complaints when
something important is missing.
When only you know whence you got the kit,
and none of us knows how it was built (or
even which version of wget we're discussing),
it can be difficult to know exactly how to
supply the missing bits.
