Hi Alexander,

where in the website did you get this command? The wiki tutorial for the 
new users points to the right place:

  https://docs.einsteintoolkit.org/et-docs/Tutorial_for_New_Users

wget --no-check-certificate 
https://github.com/gridaphobe/CRL/raw/ET_2011_05/GetComponents
chmod 755 GetComponents


Cheers,
Bruno.
