Thank you SekeRob*, will try this.
My boinc data dir is /var/lib/boinc-client, I moved @ca-bundle.crt to a temporary dir and placed this file instead. |

@Bigeagle:
("i'm not willing to reload old certificates on my system") The workaround described here by sepmsk and originally by Christian Beer at Einstein@home replaces the Debian systemwide certificates with older ones, so maybe it could break ssomething somewhere on your system (unlikely IMHO). However, downloading https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BOINC/boinc/master/curl/ca-bundle.crt and putting it in your BOINC data directory (/var/lib/boinc-client) could only risk BOINC. The boinc-client installer makes ca-bundle.crt a symbolic link to the Debian system's certificates file. Before you copy in the downloaded ca-bundle.crt, remove this link. The system certificates will be unaffected. |

Thanks Rickjb, that seems to be an easy and much better workaround.
