wget dependency

Installing wget did not install ssl, which I suppose would be a dependency. Wget would not run without libssl. Is that left out intentionally or do I need to report something?

wget depends on openssl so pacman should've installed it. I don't know what happened in your case.

Unless the package was added manually with -A instead of -S ... ? Would -A still force libssl as a dependency even though it is not a requirement?

Or am I wrong in thinking wget will even function without libssl?

wget won't work without libssl.

pacman -A will only install the package if all dependencies are installed. If not, you'll get a missing dependency error message and installation will abort.
