Hi,

Thanks for getting back with me.

Gentoo appears to have fixed this bug by linking julia/cert.pem to the system's ca-certificates.crt. https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=26b59330b5222996defa4536237e62404bf21168

Is there a way I could rebuild my own slightly modified Julia with a link like that?

I understand that there's probably a good reason that Guix's Julia doesn't by default have cert.pem, but I would be pleased with a hacky custom solution if it made Jupyter notebooks work.

Thanks,

Theodore

Well, that’s because Julia upstream does not take care about packagers;
as explicitly mentioned in this comment:

https://github.com/JuliaLang/MbedTLS.jl/pull/261#issuecomment-1346886879

The Guixer Cayetano Santos fixed upstream the issue for one package.
But as you are noticing it is not done for all.

I do not know what is the best solution because the issue is coming from
Julia itself.

Efraim, any suggestion?

Cheers,
simon
