Sorry, been rather busy today so I kept the post short. Since your wget is
wonky, you can't use the wwwperzl.sh to fix it. You'll need to download
all the RPMs listed on the deps file I showed before. The latest versions
are here: ftp://www.oss4aix.org/latest/aix61/ (May not be the same version
listed in the deps file) Download those somehow and put them into the
/QOpenSys/download folder. You'll also need to download the deps file and
put it under /QOpenSys/download/
www.oss4aix.org/rpmdb/deplists/aix61/wget-1.17.1-2.aix5.1.ppc.deps

Then run

./wwwperzl.sh aix61 rpm wget-1.17.1-2.aix5.1.ppc

the name above is the deps file minus the .deps part.

That should get you going.

Opportunity for a teaching moment.....

What is missing from your post, which is helpful information, is how to
solve the problem. I do understand that there are dependencies and I do

know how to list those dependencies, what the documentation on the YiPS
site lacks, and what is lacking elsewhere is a clear step by step, which

I need in order to get 'er done. Here is what is on the YiPS site
regarding the Perzl script:

------------------------------------------------------------------

1) Download (laptop):
unzip download-2.0.tar.zip (will create download-2.0.tar)

2) FTP
ftp myibmi
cd /QOpenSys
bin
put download-2.0.tar

2) Setup rpm and perzl *.deps (local copy)
call qp2term (or ssh uid@myibmi)
cd /QOpenSys
tar -xf download-2.0.tar
cd /QOpenSys/download
./setup2.sh
(a) setup installs rpm.rte
(b) setup rpm install wget
(c) setup untar perzl deplists (
www.oss4aix.org/rpmdb/deplists/aix53,aix61
)
Note: (c) can take significant time (setting up prezl depend tree
...)

call qp2term (or ssh uid@myibmi)
cd /QOpenSys/download
./wwwperzl.sh help
customer:
--------------
wwwperzl.sh aix53|aix61 option [scan]
required:
aix53|aix61
optional:
option [scan]
help - help customer
admin - admin help, PASE releases, perzl site copy functions,
etc.
list [scan] - list possible downloads
count [scan] - count list possible downloads
wget1 [scan] - wget from perzl
wget [scan] - wget plus depends from perzl
wgetv [scan] - wget plus depends from perzl (view action only)
rpm1 [scan] - rpm install local (post wget)
rpm [scan] - rpm install plus depends (post wget)
rpmv [scan] - rpm install plus depends (view action only)
(*)[scan] - wild card rpm scan [gcc*]
----------------------------------------------------------------------

The command syntax to use is then ID'd as:

wwwperzl.sh aix53|aix61 option [scan]

At this point the author (Tony in this case) ASSUMES several things:
1) You know what syntax combinations mean
2) You can decrypt the prompts/text on the right of some of the
commands
3) Examples aren't needed because the instructions are
self-explanatory...

Wrong on all counts. I might guess I could do something like:

wwwperzl.sh aix53 ...... but what the heck is 'option [scan]'? Then
we list what appear to be examples but they aren't.

wwwperzl.sh aix61 wget [scan] gets me:

search [[scan]] unique version not found

then a boatload of .deps files. Nice. Very helpful.....

I know that *nix geeks love this stuff but in my humble opinion a
few good examples when documenting or replying to a post can be helpful.

Perlz
builds and work as a pseudo-package manager. The .deps packaged with
it
are pretty old and incomplete. All the dep files are here:
ftp://www.oss4aix.org/rpmdb/deplists/aix61/

eg.

ftp://www.oss4aix.org/rpmdb/deplists/aix61/wget-1.17.1-2.aix5.1.ppc.deps
bash-4.3-17.aix5.1.ppc.rpm
bzip2-1.0.5-3.aix5.3.ppc.rpm
gdbm-1.11-1.aix5.1.ppc.rpm
gettext-0.10.40-8.aix5.2.ppc.rpm
info-5.1-2.aix5.1.ppc.rpm
libgcc-4.8.3-1.aix6.1.ppc.rpm
libiconv-1.14-2.aix5.1.ppc.rpm
libidn-1.32-1.aix5.1.ppc.rpm
openssl-1.0.1s-1.aix5.1.ppc.rpm
pcre-8.38-1.aix5.1.ppc.rpm
perl-5.8.8-2.aix5.1.ppc.rpm
readline-6.3-5.aix5.1.ppc.rpm
zlib-1.2.4-2.aix5.1.ppc.rpm

I have no idea why Perzl makes seemingly all of his RPMs depend on
bash.
It wouldn't be a problem I suppose, but the wwwperzl.sh script is
braindead and will reinstall any dependencies even if they're already
installed. </rant>

Anyway, each dep file contains the full list of dependencies (its
immediate dependencies, their dependencies, and so on) so you just
need to
download and install those and you should be good (well, other than
fixing
up the iconv thing, which wwwperzl.sh takes care of for you).
