Without this file (which can be a symbolic link to `/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt`) many Julia 1.8.3 packages, e.g. `HTTP`, do not work. This is what happens: julia> import HTTP [ Info: Precompiling HTTP [cd3eb016-35fb-5094-929b-558a96fad6f3] ERROR: LoadError: InitError: SystemError: opening file "/usr/share/julia/cert.pem": No such file or directory Stacktrace: [1] systemerror(p::String, errno::Int32; extrainfo::Nothing) @ Base ./error.jl:176 [2] #systemerror#80 @ ./error.jl:175 [inlined] [3] systemerror @ ./error.jl:175 [inlined] [4] open(fname::String; lock::Bool, read::Nothing, write::Nothing, create::Nothing, truncate::Nothing, append::Nothing) @ Base ./iostream.jl:293 [5] open @ ./iostream.jl:275 [inlined] [6] open(f::Base.var"#387#388"{String}, args::String; kwargs::Base.Pairs{Symbol, Union{}, Tuple{}, NamedTuple{(), Tuple{}}}) @ Base ./io.jl:382 [7] open @ ./io.jl:381 [inlined] [8] read @ ./io.jl:462 [inlined] [9] __sslinit__() @ MbedTLS ~/.julia/packages/MbedTLS/lqmet/src/ssl.jl:787 [10] __init__() @ MbedTLS ~/.julia/packages/MbedTLS/lqmet/src/MbedTLS.jl:55 [11] _include_from_serialized(pkg::Base.PkgId, path::String, depmods::Vector{Any}) @ Base ./loading.jl:831 [12] _require_search_from_serialized(pkg::Base.PkgId, sourcepath::String, build_id::UInt64) @ Base ./loading.jl:1039 [13] _require(pkg::Base.PkgId) @ Base ./loading.jl:1315 [14] _require_prelocked(uuidkey::Base.PkgId) @ Base ./loading.jl:1200 [15] macro expansion @ ./loading.jl:1180 [inlined] [16] macro expansion @ ./lock.jl:223 [inlined] [17] require(into::Module, mod::Symbol) @ Base ./loading.jl:1144 [18] include @ ./Base.jl:419 [inlined] [19] include_package_for_output(pkg::Base.PkgId, input::String, depot_path::Vector{String}, dl_load_path::Vector{String}, load_path::Vector{String}, concrete_deps::Vector{Pair{Base.PkgId, UInt64}}, source::Nothing) @ Base ./loading.jl:1554 [20] top-level scope @ stdin:1 during initialization of module MbedTLS in expression starting at /home/dima/.julia/packages/HTTP/RyUY8/src/HTTP.jl:1 in expression starting at stdin:1 This can be fixed by root # ln -s /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt /usr/share/julia/cert.pem
You are right, I had used this workaround but forgot to incorporate it into the package because that was before I started looking more into Julia packaging.
