Subject: wget -q in bootstrap is too silent
Date: Fri, 4 Oct 2019 17:34:21 +0200	[thread overview]

Hi,

we just had an issue with the bootstrap script because wget -q
suppresses error output.

E.g. instead of
"
ERROR: cannot verify translationproject.org's certificate, issued by
'CN=Let\'s Encrypt Authority X3,O=Let\'s Encrypt,C=US':
  Unable to locally verify the issuer's authority.
"
there is no output.

This lead later to the confusing error
"
automake: error: cannot open < lib/gnulib.mk: No such file or directory
"

Instead of -q we could use -nv to avoid disguising the real error.
But there will be some diagnostic noice...

WDYT ?

Regards, Tim
