I wonder what your OpenSSL system directory has inside it. Mine contains
a -/usr/lib/ssl/certs- directory that is a symbolic link to
-/etc/ssl/certs-, which contains the certificates. If yours doesn't do
that, then maybe that is the source of the problem.

FWIW (not much, but you tweaked my interest), on my Debian 'Buster'
system:

-IO::Socket::SSL- interrogates -Net::SSLeay- for an OpenSSL system
directory, and receives an answer -/usr/lib/ssl-, to which it appends
-/certs- to yield: -/usr/lib/ssl/certs-.

But that will be overridden by the environment variable -SSL_CERT_DIR-,
which you have taken advantage of.

-/usr/lib/ssl/certs- is installed and implemented as a symbolic link to
-/etc/ssl/certs-, by the -openssl- package (version 1.1.1d-0+deb10u2).
So that's where we end up looking.

-/etc/ssl/certs- is populated by the -ca-certificates- package (version
20190110).

-Net::SSLeay- is provided by the -libnet-ssleay-perl- package (version
1.85-2+b1).
