Hi,

Having the same issue in my environment as well, the error messages seem to match your above example.

recipe-robot --ignore-existing --verbose --debug "https://fjinstallers.s3.amazonaws.com/FlowJo/FlowJo-OSX64-10.6.2.dmg"
Processing: https://fjinstallers.s3.amazonaws.com/FlowJo/FlowJo-OSX64-10.6.2.dmg
Input path looks like a download URL.
    Download URL is: https://fjinstallers.s3.amazonaws.com/FlowJo/FlowJo-OSX64-10.6.2.dmg
[WARNING] Careful, this might be a version-specific URL. Better to give me a "latest" URL or a Sparkle feed.
Downloading file for further inspection...
    Downloaded to /Users/****/Library/Caches/Recipe Robot/2020-02-26_10-03-14_704984/FlowJo-OSX64-10.6.2.dmg
Determining download format...
    File extension is dmg
[DEBUG] Download format is unknown, so we're going to try mounting it as a disk image first, then unarchiving it. This may produce errors, but will hopefully result in a success.

Hi @qu1gl3s - Could you try again with RC3? https://github.com/homebysix/recipe-robot/releases/tag/v2.0.0-rc3

[homebysix]

Should be resolved in 7ab0dd2, which is due to be released with Recipe Robot 2.3.0.
