The ":" character is perfectly legal in that part of the URL, you
don't need to escape it. In either case what CKAN will see is : since
it will get decoded by the middleware.

I suspect what is happening is that the search back-end uses : as a
field separator, similar to the way you can do
site:exmaple.org with google.

So this will get transformed to 

    publishingInstitution:http://lobid.org/...

which isn't intelligible to Solr.

Just a guess.
