Describe the Bug

Basically, it is a re-open of #1631.

If I'm on VPN and trying to fetch Node.js source, it will give error message like this: image

If I comment out this line: image

Then I will get this error, which is more comprehensible: image

I understand it's an upstream issue (pkg-fetch), but I'll leave it here for you to coordinate with pkg-fetch. After all, I'm using pkg.

Expected Behavior

Display this error: Error! FetchError: request to https://nodejs.org/dist/v14.20.0/SHASUMS256.txt failled, reason: unable to get local issuer certificate

Instead of this error: Error! AssertionError [ERR_ASSERTION]: The expression evaluated to a falsy value:

To Reproduce

  1. Make sure you're on VPN
  2. Delete the PKG_CACHE_PATH folder (For me, it's C:\Users\<user>\.pkg-cache)
  3. Run npx pkg --targets node14-win-x64 --output ./bin/test index.js (or something like that)
  4. It'll give the error message
