I'm running Xubuntu 17.10 with gimp 2.8.20 and I still can't open https
URLs with gimp. According to this upstream bug report:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=782319
gimp 2.8 should be able to open https URLs as long as glib-networking is
installed, here I quote that bug report:

Title:
Cannot open file from https location (URL)
Status in gimp
Might be missing SSL support in some library or tool, or a failure to
access that particular server - the file-uri plug-in can be built to use
through gvfs, libcurl or wget, cf.

My bet for the Ubuntu packages is
