Hmm, I don't know what went wrong - did you reload the package
descriptions from your package manager? Anyway,  you could download the
package from here to your home folder:

<http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/w/wget/wget_1.11.4-2ubuntu1_amd64.deb>

Then install it with

sudo dpkg -i wget_1.11.4-2ubuntu1_amd64.deb

from a terminal.
