Probably because it's the dreaded 404 HTML page that many others have
been experiencing. Have you tried just doing "cat <file>" or "file
<file>" on it first? mc probably relies on the extension to decide how
to handle the file, rather than a magic-based parse, so it incorrectly
assumes it's actually an RPM, and fails miserably as above.
