Description Alexander Vereeken 2023-06-08 13:09:02 UTC

Hello,

Luc from the FreeBSD Discord has reported that pkgmir.geo.freebsd.org doesnt have an vaild certificate.

pkg has issued the message but also by simply browsing to this url gives a message that something is wrong with the certificate.

Thank you in advance!

There were some clusteradm commits yesterday that seem to have created a certificate for this hostname.

Incidentally: running pkg over https provides no security or privacy improvements.  It only warms up CPUs unnecessarily.
