This won't solve the problem but make it even worse!
You just compile the project without the assert() function, which makes
then the program crash.
The assertion is there for a reason! That means the code there assumes
that the URL is canonical and doesn't work correctly if it isn't.
To really fix this, you'd have to find out *why* it asserts there and
fix *that* problem.
