Fix what? Setup is responsible for doing it's own downloads. If you use
an external tool - presumably because you're setting up your own mirror
- it's your responsibility to give setup the same things it expects from
the official mirrors.

That said, it's probably easy enough to tweak the parser, and I'll
review a patch happily.
