Hi,

 I am using Debian Sarge, wget is 1.8.2. I try to download a single deb
file with wget as of:
wget http://www.lsc.hu/debian/pool/main/gcc-3.2-base_1%3a3.2.3-0pre9_i386.deb

The output is:
-- cut --
--09:01:12-- 
http://www.lsc.hu/debian/pool/main/gcc-3.2-base_1%3a3.2.3-0pre9_i386.deb
           => `gcc-3.2-base_1%3A3.2.3-0pre9_i386.deb'
Resolving www.lsc.hu... done.
Connecting to www.lsc.hu[195.56.172.131]:80... connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 404 Not Found

As you can see, %3a, which is a ':' changed into %3A and that's why the
web server can not find it. It should be left untouched as %3a; as well
as possibly the other %xy characters as well.

Thanks,
GCS
