What wget command are you running please?

None actually. I do know that terminal command line has dropped '-get' so we use 'sudo apt' rather than 'sudo apt-get'. I have been seeing a lot of Updates/upgrades the past few months calling for a Function which is 'No longer Supported' at the ends of their data strings. and which because of this, are returning the 'Invalid compressed data length error' when attempting to install them. - Which is why I asked this question.

You can use apt or apt-get if you like

Did you execute the command "apt upgrade" or "wget upgrade" (as written in the question title)?
