I was compiling wget 1.7 on MacOS X 10.1 (Darwin 1.4). Around line 435 in
html-parse.c there's the section:
case AC_S_QUOTE1:
assert (ch == '\'' || ch == '"');
quote_char = ch; /* cheating -- I really don't feel like
introducing more different states for
different quote characters. */
ch = *p++;
state = AC_S_IN_QUOTE;
break;
I had to change:
assert (ch == '\'' || ch == '"');
to:
assert (ch == '\'' || ch == '\"');
Otherwise, it would not compile... it was, I think, interpreting the ",
rather than using it literally. Escaping it appears to have fixed the
problem.
The compiling process was simply doing a 'configure' then 'make'. After
making the change described above, I ran 'make' again, and everything was
fine.
