Okay; the URL resolves (after a while) in Opera; it does not resolve
(after a number of hours) in Arora.
I note that that bug report, whilst it refers to the same error
message, relates to a different version of Debian; that bug report
refers to Debian 7.1.
As indicated, I am using Debian 6.x LTS.

I did mention that an update had recently occurred, to the package
named "file", and this problem occurred after that update had been
implemented.
I can not find from the full message header as displayed in gmail,
which version number of Debian, you are using. Are you using Debian
6.x LTS, or, Debian 7.x (or, yet another version of Debian)?
If you are not also using Debian 6.x LTS, then you might not have the
same problem.
If you try to open a JPEG file with the GIMP, using the same procedure
as me; using the File Manager to open the file with the GIMP, are you
successful, with that procedure?
That, you have not indicated.
