Does anybody know how we're supposed to register ca-certs on the Pandora? ptitSeb seems to have a script that isn't on my Pandora. opkg has never heard of "ca-certificates"

No idea about angstrom, but since it's a single folder tree, can't you just copy them from a platform where they're present (my Debian x86 build here has them, and they don't look architecture specific). I don't think you have to 'register' them with anything, just have them on your file system (though I may be wrong on this).


Either that, or you could try pulling them out of the firefox.pnd or other browser. AFAIK Linux browsers ship with their own set of root certs.

I can get the certs, but when I try and use codeblocks' git command to pull from github, it fails. ptitSeb mentions about running "update-ca-certificates", which is a script on his. I don't have that.
So it's not the certs I have a problem with, it's configuring things to use them

I'm trying to build a procedure, using my other pandora. But no luck for now... Still searching for the right procedure.

Now it has, don't know if it will do what you want though.
Thanks, it gives me the tool that ptitSeb was talking about, but running git still fails with "SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate".
Nevermind, I believe you can disable certificate checks in the git config, so I'll just do that (if I can work out where the git config file is)

Edit: Can't even seem to get that to work either :/

If all you need is to pull from github, you can just substitute https:// with git:// .
What what do you know?! I thought I tried this when I first ran into the cert error... Obviously not...
Thanks
 
In case anyone's looking, here's a copy of the "CA-Certificates" package that's avialabe from the Angstrom repo.
