I was curious about a PPC64 Debian and any wget build problems installation. So I installed PPC64 Debian Jessie (8.5) in a VM from a netinstall.
After installation, I had not problems at all (adding the packages from README.checkout). Here is what I did: # fresh install of Debian 8.5 PPC64 # added <user> during installation # on the virt-manager console: - login as root - check/edit /etc/resolv.conf - apt-get update - apt-get upgrade - apt-get install git openssh-server sudo - usermod -a -G sudo <user> - logout # now login as <user> via ssh - git clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org/wget.git - cd wget (read README.checkout) - sudo apt-get install autoconf automake flex perl python texinfo gettext libgnutls28-dev libidn11-dev libpsl-dev python3 - ./bootstrap - ./configure - sudo apt-get install make - make - make check Completely built without any issues.
