Hello lynx users,
I am trying to configure lynx to handle ssl certs following
`README.sslcerts` [1]. I am using Lynx Version 2.8.9dev.1 (12 Mar 2014)
on Debian stable.
I am having problems with setting SSL_CERT_DIR and SSL_CERT_FILE
environment variables.
[1] http://lynx.invisible-island.net/current/README.sslcerts
Long story short, the guide asks you to determine where `libcrypto.a` is,
so I invoked:
address@hidden:/usr$ find -name libcrypto.a
./lib/i386-linux-gnu/libcrypto.a
Then, to determine the default location for the certs the
guide asks you to run:
strings libcrypto.a | grep -in cert | less
[...]
28697:/usr/lib/ssl/certs
28698:/usr/lib/ssl/cert.pem
28699:SSL_CERT_DIR
28700:SSL_CERT_FILE
[...]
I modified my .bashrc to export those variables:
address@hidden:~$ echo $SSL_CERT_DIR; echo $SSL_CERT_FILE
/usr/lib/ssl/certs
/usr/lib/ssl/cert.pem
`FORCE_SSL_PROMPT` is set to `PROMPT` in lynx.cfg, still when I browse,
say, duckduckgo.com I get:
SSL error:the certificate has no known issuer-Continue? (y)
I suspect there is a problem with SSL_CERT_FILE, because
`/usr/lib/ssl/certs` exists (904 elements) but I see
no `/usr/lib/ssl/cert.pem`.
Any hint on how to solve the issue?
