Re: [Bug-wget] bad filenames (again)

[Andries E. Brouwer]

After git clone, one gets a wget tree without autogenerated files.
README.checkout tells one to run ./bootstrap to generate configure.

But:

$ ./bootstrap
./bootstrap: Bootstrapping from checked-out wget sources...
./bootstrap: consider installing git-merge-changelog from gnulib
./bootstrap: getting gnulib files...
...

running: AUTOPOINT=true LIBTOOLIZE=true autoreconf --verbose --install --force 
-I m4  --no-recursive
autoreconf: Entering directory `.'
autoreconf: running: true --force
autoreconf: running: aclocal -I m4 --force -I m4
configure.ac:498: warning: macro 'AM_PATH_GPGME' not found in library
autoreconf: configure.ac: tracing
autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Libtool
autoreconf: running: /usr/bin/autoconf --include=m4 --force
configure.ac:93: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_DEFINE
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.
configure.ac:498: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_PATH_GPGME
autoreconf: /usr/bin/autoconf failed with exit status: 1
./bootstrap: autoreconf failed

This is on a vanilla Ubuntu system.
