There already has been a discussion about that (starting here:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-wget/2017-11/msg00000.html).
Looks like we didn't fix it correctly.
Currently, to disable gzip compression at all: add
compression = none
to ~/.wgetrc and/or /etc/wgetrc.
We'll fix it the next days and make up a new release then.
Interestingly, the change was introduced on 25th of July - and there was
no complaint until 1st of November. I guess we have a very limited base
of testers :-(
With Best Regards, Tim
