[Bug-wget] [bug #50556] When using international TLD, instead of encoding domain part using puny code, wget encodes it as precent encoding.

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #50556 (project wget):

That is not quite correct:

$ wget президент.рф

Wget 1.19+ uses the underlying libidn2, which you can test with
$ idn2 президент.рф

Maybe your version of Wget isn't compiled with IRI support ?
Check
$ wget --version|grep iri
and
$ ldd /usr/bin/wget|grep libidn2
