OK, so I finally was able to test newsboat (I do not use it usually)

This is my current Guix generation (on foreign distro):

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Generation 26   Jun 20 2019 17:35:43    (current)
  guix ace8e26
    repository URL: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git
    branch: master
    commit: ace8e269a40b31a9c6f413c0674529880da6a48e
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I installed newsboat, imported (`newsboat -i ~/Desktop/test.opml`) a few
test feeds in opml:

signature.asc
Description: PGP signature

test.opml
Description: Binary data

and then started `newsboat`: I was able to fetch and read all the https
feeds I imported

Can you plase confirm you still get this error?

If so, what's your current guix generation and plase attach an
opmlexport containing the offending URL(s)?

Thanks! Gio'.
