Thanks once again to Microsoft for obeying Dorey's Law of Marketing with "safelinks", I only belatedly see David's evidence included "--2022-09-26 09:12:58--" which rather says that his clock wasn't messed up, contra my earlier suggestion. martind@sirius:~$ < /dev/null openssl s_client -connect alpha.gnu.org:https > /dev/null depth=2 C = US, O = Internet Security Research Group, CN = ISRG Root X1 verify return:1 depth=1 C = US, O = Let's Encrypt, CN = R3 verify return:1 depth=0 CN = ftp.gnu.org verify return:1 DONE martind@sirius:~$ "ISRG Root X1" rings a bell. Ah yes, it's that old chestnut: https://www.openssl.org/blog/blog/2021/09/13/LetsEncryptRootCertExpire/, which contains advice for David. I also found the work around from https://www.mail-archive.com/debian-lts@lists.debian.org/msg09627.html specifically: sudo rm /usr/share/ca-certificates/mozilla/DST_Root_CA_X3.crt ... to be helpful. ________________________________ From: Bug-make <bug-make-bounces+martin.dorey=hds....@gnu.org> on behalf of Eli Zaretskii <e...@gnu.org> Sent: Monday, September 26, 2022 10:10 To: psm...@gnu.org <psm...@gnu.org> Cc: david.s.bo...@gmail.com <david.s.bo...@gmail.com>; bug-make@gnu.org <bug-make@gnu.org> Subject: Re: GNU make 4.3.90 release candidate available ***** EXTERNAL EMAIL ***** > From: Paul Smith <psm...@gnu.org> > Cc: bug-make@gnu.org > Date: Mon, 26 Sep 2022 12:31:34 -0400 > > On Mon, 2022-09-26 at 12:16 -0400, David Boyce wrote: > > BTW wget complains about the certificate: > > > > $ wget > > https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Falpha.gnu.org%2Fgnu%2Fmake%2Fmake-4.3.90.tar.gz&data=05%7C01%7CMartin.Dorey%40hitachivantara.com%7Cedd8aca6f47745c3454608da9fee5eb7%7C18791e1761594f52a8d4de814ca8284a%7C0%7C0%7C637998146567397614%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=LhGTvaG7H%2FEhlZTyhWwdwar%2Bxy2DdFbd1mMcNM1dGXI%3D&reserved=0 > > --2022-09-26 09:12:58-- > > https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Falpha.gnu.org%2Fgnu%2Fmake%2Fmake-4.3.90.tar.gz&data=05%7C01%7CMartin.Dorey%40hitachivantara.com%7Cedd8aca6f47745c3454608da9fee5eb7%7C18791e1761594f52a8d4de814ca8284a%7C0%7C0%7C637998146567397614%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=LhGTvaG7H%2FEhlZTyhWwdwar%2Bxy2DdFbd1mMcNM1dGXI%3D&reserved=0 > > Resolving alpha.gnu.org (alpha.gnu.org)... 209.51.188.21, 2001:470:142:3::c > > Connecting to alpha.gnu.org (alpha.gnu.org)|209.51.188.21|:443... connected. > > ERROR: cannot verify alpha.gnu.org's certificate, issued by '/C=US/O=Let\'s > > Encrypt/CN=R3': > > Issued certificate has expired. > > To connect to alpha.gnu.org insecurely, use `--no-check-certificate'. > > Oddly I don't get this warning.
