Summary: CA certificate "missing" for launchpad, bzr fails
Initial Comment:
System: x86_64, Fedora 9, last updated 7/4/2008
Downstream reports:

The basic problem is that I am trying to do:
bzr launchpad-login gene-czarc
and it fails with:
curl: (60) Peer certificate cannot be authenticated ...
To check verify certificates, bzr uses pycurl which, in turn, uses libcurl. I have been tracking down through the code (I am not very good at python) as well as assuming that the CA cert was missing.
----------------------------------------------------
Here are the results of my latest testing:
First, I installed "curl" to have a nice command line
interface.
1. run: curl --cacert /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt https://www.redhat.com
or run: curl https://www/redhat/com
both results: html
2. run: curl --cacert /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt https://launchpad.net
or run: curl https//launchpad.net
both results: curl: (60) Peer certificate cannot be authenticated ...
-----------------------------------------------------
get new cacert.pem from http://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html
[curl website] ... I was assuming that a cert was missing
-----------------------------------------------------
3. run: curl --cacert ./cacert.pem https://www.redhat.com
result: html
4. run: curl --cacert ./cacert.pem https://launchpad.net
result: html ... looking good!
-----------------------------------------------------
This proves something but I am not sure what because if I copy the new cacert.pem into /etc/pki/tls/certs/ and try to use it from there, redhat works
but launchpad does not.
-------------------------------------------------
OK, one more test: copy /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt to ./ [this is openssl's]
run curl --cacert ./ca-bundle.crt https://launchpad.net
result: html
So, this tells me that the CA cert has benn there all along!
-------------------------------------------------------
I have not looked into the libcurl code itself.
However, from the curl.spec in the src.rpm, the configuration looks good:
--with-ca-bundle=%{_sysconfdir}/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt
but then there is this:
run: curl-config --ca
result: @CURL_CA_BUNDLE@
Oh, I also tried using an environment setting:
export CURL_CA_BUNDLE=/etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt
bzr launchpad-login gene-czarc
fails again.
