Follow-up Comment #7:
I would go with c and f.
A warning should be printed during --debug output if Wget encounters an
Follow-up Comment #5, bug #41331 (project wget):
Before I create a patch, I would like to know what you suggest. At least such
a suggestion should satisfy the widest possible range of users.
Some options could be (single or combination)
a. Output WARNING instead of ERROR
b. Output ERROR only
Follow-up Comment #6, bug #41331 (project wget):
I would say c. Perhaps f could be OK too and could be even safer, but this is
partly unrelated to the error/warning message.
e may not be sufficient. For instance, a user may want to rename some
buggy/old certificate by adding the ~ character at

certificate directory. Even if

I'm unable to reproduce this bug on the current git HEAD and on the v1.15
tag.
I set up my wgetrc file to have a ca_directory which has one cert file and a
bunch of other random text files. Trying to download an https page gave me no

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #41331 (project wget):
In my case, a strace shows, e.g. for an empty file empty:
10268 stat(/home/vinc17/wd/config/cacert/empty, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644,
st_size=0, ...}) = 0
10268 open(/home/vinc17/wd/config/cacert/empty, O_RDONLY) = 6
