F-Droid Repository links https (instead of http) #193

Getting a certificate for that server/url and renewing it from time to time, etc. (may have to pay a bit)

This ticket is to cover the creation of HTTPS certificates for the private app store server. Why?

1) F-Droid defaults to https, so users may attempt to link to the repo with a https and it will fail if they don't remove the 's' 2) Downloading from a secure URL will ensure that no-one is spoofing the URL in order to trick the user into downloading an unofficial version of the application.

The main work will be securing an HTTPS certificate for the current server used for the app store. Egwuma, can you ask HISP Nigeria to procure this, since they set up the URL in the first place? This is for lmisapp.dhis2nigeria.org.ng. Once we have a valid certificate, we can set it up on the server.
