Comment (by jak574):

 I tried it with both +ssl and +gnutls and digest authentication doesn't
 work either way with the 1.19.4_2 portfile. Both versions error out with
 "Unknown authentication scheme".

 The git check-in I pointed to above specifically adds the following line
 to the configuration:

 {{{
 --disable-digest
 }}}

 Unsurprisingly, that disables digest authentication support. The old
 portfile didn't have that and digest worked. I modified the port file to
 change this line to

 {{{
 --enable-digest
 }}}

 it fixed the issue.

 So rather than making explicit what was already happening, I believe that
 the update to the port file is explicitly turning off features that would
 otherwise have been on by default.

 I've been using wget in a production system with MacPorts for about 10
 years in this configuration. The upgrade to 1.19.4_2 broke that system.
