Ouch. You are using its mirror mode?
I have tried, and failed, to use wget to mirror download areas that are
present only via HTTP. It would routinely fail to do what I had imagined
I had asked of it and suck in adjacent content outside the tree I had
asked for, etc.
Is it possible to get at the target via ssh, and use rsync instead of
wget? It's much easier and more reliable, if it's possible.

Thimmonier had eighty [sewing] machines in operation, turning out military
uniforms--until an angry mob, composed of professional tailors who viewed the
machine as a threat to their livelihood, stormed Thimmonier's factory,
destroying all the machines and nearly killing their inventor. Thimmonier
fled to the town of Amplepuis, where he died in poverty. - Charles Panati
