Fix Certificate error with wget
So, you are unable to download from https sources with wget. Instead you get the following error. ERROR: The certificate of \`www.google.com' is not trusted. ERROR: The certificate of \`www.google.com' hasn't got a known issuer. No problemo. This error is most likely occurring for missing root certificates. Simply install the ca-certificates package: sudo apt-get install ca-certificates This should work on Ubuntu and Debian derivatives.
