The version of wget installed on a debian box seems to not like doing https by default due to not knowing about the CA certificates.
Here's a solution I found:
Download cacert.pem from http://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html and put it in /etc/ssl/certs
Then amend /etc/wgetrc to add the line
ca_certificate=/etc/ssl/certs/cacert.pem
Then wget knows about the CA certificates and all is well for https

Does wget not understand the per CA certificate format (in /etc/ssl/certs) maintained by the ca-certificates package?
Ah - that'll be the package that was evading my hunting!
