I got the same here. On manifest_xml.py line 92 and 93, we have this:
if manifestUrl.find(':') != manifestUrl.find('/') - 1:
url = urllib.parse.urljoin('gopher://' + manifestUrl, url)[9:]
It is making the remote being created this way:
Instead of this way:
Frist 9 chars are being removed by manifest_url.py script.
So, after that, the fetch will fail because "
rit.xxx.com" is not a valid address.
