(1) What I get:

$ wget https:/www.example.com
https:/www.example.com: HTTPS support not compiled in.

(2) What I should get:

$ wget https:/www.example.com
https:/www.example.com: missing slash (/) after "https:" ?

(3) My wget is indeed not missing the HTTPS support:

$ wget https://www.example.com
