To copy GPGME m4 macro, I have to install libgpgme11-dev. And if I do that, a 
./bootstrap (maybe just a configure) does the job for me.

There are several 'weak' dependencies mentioned in README.checkout. Just do it 
similar, e.g.
* [37] libmetalink is required for supporting Metalink...
* [38] libgpgme is required to support signatur checking for MetaLink...

Cloned and installed libmetalink now.

I tried
$ wget http://www.metalinker.org/samples/dsl-3.3.iso.metalink
which I understand as a download link to dsl-3.3.iso.

That only downloads the .metalink file and that's it !?
I expected Wget to download dsl-3.3.iso (of course first the .metalink file as 
intermediate file, which is needed for mirror information).
I am aware of --input-metalink, but would like to see a bit more of automation 
in the above example.

WDYT ?

Regards, Tim
