Claude, Bill, Black M,
this problem sounds very similar to a problem with other files hosted on
Sourceforge. Installing unrestricted Microsoft font files for Debian and
Ubuntu (package ttf-mscorefonts-installer) has what sounds like exactly
the same issue. The Debian developers have *hard-wired 9 source paths*
in to version 3.6, as opposed to a single source path to sourceforge.com
(plus implied redirection) as used in version 3.4 of the package (as
still used by Ubuntu). Version 3.4 issues are noted and annotated at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/msttcorefonts/+bug/1607535/comments/7.
As you can see from the bug report trace, the issue with downloading
comes and goes, almost with the state of the tide.
As for a good solution to the problem, anything which doesn't involve
ignoring security certificates would get my vote!

Hi Bill,
As we have seen with Mike, I have no difficulties with SSL/TLS
connections when using curl or wget. The used shared openSSL lib is the
same lib as wsjtx is using. Therefore, the difficulties should not come
from the lib itself. Right ?
In fact, I have additional CA certificates installed, not only the
standard ones coming with the Fedora distribution. This is a normal
situation when running a real world system. But there are only usual CA
certificates, nothing else. No exotic ones.
For me, this situation is still strange. Perhaps, the wget logs, which I
have posted, can help to understand the forwarding actions which were
used by wget.
The occurring program crash is obscure also.
