So I shall respond to myself.
I incidentally (my error was there: start by looking at the server log!)
looked at the server log and saw this:
Code:
--------------------
[14-12-21 13:32:25.6574] main::init (370) Starting Logitech Media Server
(v7.9.0, 1417184790, Sat Nov 29 04:06:35 UTC 2014) perl 5.010001
[14-12-21 13:32:31.4270] Slim::Utils::Misc::msg (1343) Warning:
[13:32:31.4257] Async::HTTP: Unable to load IO::Socket::SSL, will try
connecting to SSL servers in non-SSL mode
--------------------
Given what I'd saw with wget I went ahead and installed IO::Socket::SSL
with CPAN (since my debian distro was telling me all was up-to-date wrt.
libio-socket-ssl-perl).
Problem gone, now the repo works.
(in the meantime I did put the manually downloaded public.xml file under
a local web server and used http://localhost/foo/public.xml as repo
string. Better than manual plugin install but not eactly clean)
