Bug Description

python-httplib2 0.7.0 and higher, used by lazr.restfulclient, performs server certificate validation by default, but uses an example cacert.txt containing root certs.

Applications that use python-httplib2 should specify usage of the system ca certs for validation (/etc/ssl/certs) which are well maintained and get security updates.
