Build from make fails, certificate issue?

[varnerac]

When I try to build farwest, it complains about raw.gitub.com's certificate:

It's not issue with farwest itself, it's issue with your OS and certificates:

Connecting to raw.github.com (raw.github.com)|199.27.72.133|:443... connected.
ERROR: The certificate of ‘raw.github.com’ is not trusted.
ERROR: The certificate of ‘raw.github.com’ hasn't got a known issuer.

It's something that will be fixed very soon in erlang.mk, but you can also fix it system-wide (no idea how).

[varnerac]

The solution is to create a .wgetrc file in your home directory with the line:

check_certificate = off

Otherwise, the build will fail on OS X Mavericks with wget install from MacPorts.

erlang.mk doesn't check for certificates anymore, you don't need the file now. Thanks for the heads up!
