Q: Why does smart return error: Failed acquiring release file for '<channel_name>': when used over https ?[edit | edit source]
Although smart is capable of handling https connections, this error is caused by the SSL_CERTIFICATE issue that is affecting yocto build system. For more information, you can refer to this discussion.
At the moment we are still working on this issue in the attempt to find a permanent solution. Unfortunately, the SSL_CERTIFICATE problem also affects other tools for which a temporary workaround is provided, see [1] [2].
Q: Why does pip return There was a problem confirming the ssl certificate: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed (_ssl.c:590) - skipping ?[edit | edit source]
In order to solve this problem, a possible workaround consist of disabling the SSL CERTIFICATE checking as suggested in the following example:
pip install pyserial --trusted-host pypi.python.org --index-url=http://pypi.python.org/simple/

Q: How can I turn off git SSL verification?[edit | edit source]
Since the SSL_CERTIFICATE problem affects also 'git', it is suggested to turn off the SSL CERTIFICATE checking in the case you are trying to work with a repository over https. In order to achieve this, from the local folder export the GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY variable, in this way: export GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY=1
