That looks like the current bullseye version, so your course of action
depends on how you got here.

If you're still running bullseye and have wget installed, type:
  $ less /usr/share/doc/wget/changelog.Debian.gz
or if not installed:
  $ apt changelog wget | less

If you're not running bullseye, and don't mind being not quite up to
date, just change the "u2" in the address to "u1" to get the previous
version.

Otherwise, the easiest way is probably to visit
https://packages.debian.org/index and search for wget in bullseye.
Download it and use mc (or ar and tar) to view the changelog.
(Note it downloads from a different site.)

Ii seems the link on https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/wget
doesn't work. The package upgrade dates from April 20, well after
bullseye ceased being supported by Debian. I assume there's no
mechanism for feeding all the metadata from ancient packages back
to ftp-master. Rather a waste of resources, I should think.

Cheers,
David.
