MGA9-64 server Plasma Wayland on Compaq H000SB.
No installation issues.
No previous update, so try the command.
$ wget2  www.hermanviaene.be/donderdag.html
[0] Downloading 'http://www.hermanviaene.be/donderdag.html' ...
Saving 'donderdag.html.1'
HTTP response 200 OK [http://www.hermanviaene.be/donderdag.html]
Downloaded file displays  correctly in Firefox.

$ wget2 -o testwget2.html www.hermanviaene.be/donderdag.html
no feedback, but output file reads:
[0] Downloading 'http://www.hermanviaene.be/donderdag.html' ... Saving 'donderdag.html' HTTP response 200 OK [http://www.hermanviaene.be/donderdag.html] 
Which make sense to me.
Good enough.
