Executing "rpm -ta --clean wget-1.8.1.tgz" gives an error, after some searching I discovered this is because the version in util/wget.spec is incorrect: "Version: 1.7" should be: "Version: 1.8.1".

Furthermore, executing "rpm -Fvh wget-1.8.1-1.i686.rpm" gives an error:

  Preparing...                ########################################### [100%]
     1:wget                   ########################################### [100%]
  install-info: No such file or directory for /usr/share/info/wget.info.gz
  error: execution of %post scriptlet from wget-1.8.1-1 failed, exit status 1

"rpm -qp --script wget-1.8.1-1.i686.rpm" gives:

  postinstall scriptlet (through /bin/sh):
  /sbin/install-info /usr/share/info/wget.info.gz /usr/share/info/dir
  preuninstall scriptlet (through /bin/sh):
  if [ "$1" = 0 ]; then
      /sbin/install-info --delete /usr/share/info/wget.info.gz /usr/share/info/dir
  fi

and the rpm package contains the files in "/usr/share/info":

  /usr/share/info/wget.info-1.bz2
  /usr/share/info/wget.info-2.bz2
  /usr/share/info/wget.info-3.bz2
  /usr/share/info/wget.info-4.bz2
  /usr/share/info/wget.info.bz2

but not /usr/share/info/wget.info.gz. I do not know enough about this to correct it. It could be a setting on my system that causes .bz2 files to be generated instead of .gz files.
