wget: unrecognized option '--show-progress' on Fedora 40

[beppeilgommista]

Hi,
i get the error in title in the "installing font" section of the script.

i tried to delete the option and after that everything run without error.

winget --version

GNU Wget2 2.1.0

after that i tried to replace line 152 from this

        wget -q --show-progress $FONT_URL -O "$TEMP_DIR"/"${FONT_NAME}".zip

to this

        wget -q --progress=bar:force $FONT_URL -O "$TEMP_DIR"/"${FONT_NAME}".zip

and the progress bar shows without error.

sorry if i did something wrong, is my first contribution in a github project. please don't be too stern to me.

I came across this while working on quickemu last year: quickemu-project/quickemu#878. The best solution is probably to replace wget with curl, since it's very stable and installed nearly everywhere.

Hi,
Another option is to install the Meslo.. font on Fedora 40 manually before running the setup script. The installation worked perfectly this way.
