What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.running rssdler on an rss feed where the file or torrent can not be 
downloaded

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
die quietly with error message saying can not download / error downloading.

instead get:

I'm having the same problem, even in the latest version (0.4.2) which I recently
downloaded It happened in 0.4.0a as well.

The RSS feed I'm looking at has one item with an enclosure that 404s when a 
download
is attempted, and the rssdler daemon dies silently shortly after I start it up. 
It'll
grab the others in the feed, so I can force it to download the good links by 
running
it manually, but it won't keep running in the background like it used to.
