no buffer named *mentor-term* #9

Hi! I have just installed mentor via melpa, on GNU Emacs 26.0.50, which I compiled myself from trunk. I have rtorrent installed and working. If I do M-x mentor RET all I get is a jump to a buffer named mentor, and this message:

mentor-rtorrent-run-in-background: No buffer named *mentor-term*

I’ve tried to do (setq mentor-rtorrent-buffer-name "*mentor*") but I got the message

mentor-setup-rtorrent: Wrong type argument: "Need a pre-parsed URL.", #s(url "scgi" nil nil "" nil "/home/edgard/.emacs.d/mentor/rtorrent.rpc" nil nil t ...), url

So I checked and that file rtorrent.rpc was there. I’ve deleted it, and now rtorrent is working, and appearing on this *mentor* buffer.

I don’t know what I did here but it seems to have worked : o ). I guess the problem was just the .rpc file...?

Thanks for the package!

I've also run into this same error, clean install of mentor from melpa.
