So just for the archives, if one changes /etc/w3c/validator.conf to have
<Protocols>
Allow = http,https
</Protocols>
and adds libcrypt-ssleay-perl, it works.
Self-signed certs may even no longer prevent validation of the rendered HTTPS
(very useful for web site development testing on VMs, etc.), provided that one
adds a line like :
$ENV{'PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME'} = 0;
around the "Define global variables." section in
/usr/lib/cgi-bin/w3c-markup-validator/check.
Of course, doing this on a production server may not be advisable... on the
other hand I don't know if it matters much that the SSL certs are verified or
not when one is interested in the HTML served there... YMMV.
Hope this helps.
