Hello Divan,

If you want to a bundle of standard CA certificates install "nss-certs".
It is probably already be installed as a system package since most of
the example GuixSd configs include it. But I have encountered at least
one situation where I needed to also install in as a user package,
e.g. 'guix package -i nss-certs'.

For details please see ...
