I know what happen, if I don't have installed the ca certificate from my certification authority in ubuntu certification system gwibber cannot read the json file. I think it's a very secure method to the user but it will be better that only warning the user and don't force to install it.

This is the error without ca certificate installed:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/gwibber/microblog/network.py", line 32, in __init__
    self.curl.perform()
error: (60, 'server certificate verification failed. CAfile: /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt CRLfile: none')

I've installed gwibber 2.32 and there is the same error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/gwibber/microblog/network.py", line 53, in __init__
    self.curl.perform()
error: (60, 'server certificate verification failed. CAfile: /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt CRLfile: none')

The error is because the server certificate is from a custom CA and the CA certifiare is not installed in the machine, the perfect solution will be a prompt windows like firefox o chormium advertising about the certificate and accept the certificate o ignore this error.
