apparently mldonkey does not support https tracker urls

I believe not only tracker, but https torrent links are also affected. I tried following:

https://releases.ubuntu.com/20.04/ubuntu-20.04-live-server-amd64.iso.torrent

mldonkey seems not able to fetch the torrent file.

Any progress on this? It certainly looks like many ISPs are implementing filtering of bittorrent traffic, regardless of / even for obviously legitimate usage like large Linux distro isos.

I would think the best way to solve it is to use ocurl library but I don't have immediate plan to work on it
