That OS is over 9 years old now.

I’ve been known to run Linux boxes longer than that, but one of the several 
tradeoffs for that stability is that you must accept incompatibilities like 
this.

Besides the CA database issue brought up above, there is another common cause 
for wget/curl complaints with HTTPS connections: the TLS/SSL and/or crypto 
library in use on the system is old enough that it doesn’t support any of the 
encryption protocols offered by the web server.  Web servers are often 
configured specifically to refuse old and known-broken protocols, with the 
attendant hit to backwards compatibility.

Do you really need something in the daily scrape that you wouldn’t get from a 
Fossil clone?  There are a few things on sqlite.org that aren’t in the Fossil 
repo, but perhaps not as many as you’d guess.

I ask because if you build a Fossil binary by hand, you can link it to an 
up-to-date version of OpenSSL, which may solve the certificate problem.
