python3.4 has recently started to verify TLS certificates by default:
https://bugs.python.org/issue22417

Please add an option to disable certificate verification.

I forgot to mention that I would prefer if it was possible to disable verification only for selected feeds. But if that's difficult to implement, I can live with a global option, too.

I'll probably do this after the freeze, so here is a little brain dump:

 - this is needed for python >= 3.4.3.

That's right, but python3.4 is Debian is a random snapshot of upstream VCS, so the change already happened there. :-(

The python bug tracker suggests to monkeypatch the ssl module to disable verification:

   ssl._create_default_https_context = ssl._create_unverified_context

Ugh. It's a shame that Python developers decided to enable verification without providing a sane interface to disable it. :-(
