--- Comment #3 from Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni at free-electrons.com> ---
Thanks for the investigation. This problem has been fixed/worked-around
upstream by commit
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/wget.git/commit/?id=047746eb765d212cbf05afac16f4bd73257d8186
which ensures that .gz and .tgz files don't get uncompressed.

However wget 1.19.2 remains affected.

Options:

 - Ignore the problem, and leave users of 1.19.2 affected by the problem.

 - Bail out if wget 1.19.2 is used, and leave it to the user to use a suitable
wget version

 - Detect if wget >= 1.19.2, and pass --compression=none

Thoughts?
