Had gotten instructions, but had never used docker before and something happened different on my Fedora 38 system.
But does seem to work fine. Process creates a 24993339 wget2.exe stripping it gets size down 4537344 wget2.exe and using upx further lowers to 2386432 wget2.exe Not familiar with docker, so this is steps I was able to use. Have down it 3 times and tried to document it. Seems to require multiple terminal windows and had to search for where the wget2.exe file was actual created and had to copy it since closing it removes most files? Original instructions said it should have been left in /tmp directory, but no files there. Might be how Fedora does docker?? Note: some lines wrap here. Seems to work with up to 10 threads. #!/bin/bash # Make sure docker not running? # Make sure build-images directory doesn't exist? ps -ef | grep docker dockerd ps -ef | grep docker #root 267124 267044 0 04:17 pts/0 00:00:00 dockerd #root 267136 267124 0 04:17 ? 00:00:00 containerd --config /var/run/docker/containerd/containerd.toml In 2nd Terminal Window run #!/bin/bash git clone https://gitlab.com/gnuwget/build-images.git cd build-images docker build -f docker-debian-mingw-static/Dockerfile . # The number after /tmp is at end and needs to be modified to match docker run -it --rm -v /tmp:/tmp 078cc54eeb0c Then get prompt root@c23396768b3c:/usr/local# #Copy Paste following commands git clone https://gitlab.com/gnuwget/wget2.git cd wget2 ./bootstrap --skip-po (Note: Bold is one long line) LDFLAGS="-Wl,-Bstatic,--whole-archive -lwinpthread -Wl,--no-whole-archive" CFLAGS="-O2 -DNGHTTP2_STATICLIB" ./configure $CONFIGURE_BASE_FLAGS --build=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu --host=$PREFIX --disable-shared --enable-static --without-gpgme --enable-threads=windows make -j$(nproc) ===== ps -ef | grep docker root 267124 267044 0 04:17 pts/0 00:00:00 dockerd root 267136 267124 0 04:17 ? 00:00:01 containerd --config /var/run/docker/containerd/containerd.toml root 268213 268193 0 04:28 pts/3 00:00:00 docker run -it --rm -v /tmp:/tmp 078cc54eeb0c root 268247 1 0 04:28 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/containerd-shim-runc-v2 -namespace moby -id c23396768b3c44765da887cd003886d1311ea8c19ef92314434a8b1fd1b06f82 -address /var/run/docker/containerd/containerd.sock This is were I had to find results.
