Comment (by dd32):

 > As to reproducing this, you should be able to empty the /etc/ssl/certs/
 directory and put your own root CA in there instead.

 Thanks, duplicated all the issues now that i've cleared that.

 Added a start of a patch, and more discussion on SSL verification on
 #25007.

 Leaving this ticket for discussion specifically related to delivering
 secured packages.
