Need to get 621kB of archives.
After unpacking 1724kB of additional disk space will be used.

since wget has no deps, did you try browsing and downloading the .deb file, and doing a dpkg -i ?

I had the same problem....the solution is to go to the meamo download section and download and install using application manager.

I've belatedly flashed the new N800 operating system, but also am having difficulty reinstalling wget. I've followed the previous example of downloading it from the Maemo Download site and "asked" the Application Manager to do its stuff. But it failed to install it for me, in addition to which the Application Manager is also consistently failing to refresh ever since I've installed the latest operating system. Does anyone have any further useful thoughts or advice in this matter? (I've also tried installing it using apt-get, also with no success.)
