homebrew PPC fails to install 'wget'
I'm wanting to set up an older PPC mac mini running 10.5.8 and have installed git via make install. I believe I've successfully installed the PPC port of homebrew on this machine. My first attempt to brew install wget failed noting that I should upgrade xcode to 3.1.4. I've done so and the errors are down to a smaller volume. The only issue brew doctor could find was two git config files that I'm reticent to remove because they may be required by git. Pls confirm I can remove them.
The existing issues mostly seem to be issues because 'wget' is not installed. So I think I've exhausted the simple answers unless I can remove those two git config files: /usr/local/git/bin git-config git-repo-config
Is there something I'm overlooking?
