You don't have the root certificate for the Debian CA installed. You
can add it manually, I think, after checking its authenticity, e.g.
from <http://ca.debian.org/>; it seems to be part of the
ca-certificates package, too.

It's a common problem with SSL/TLS connections (in this case https):
you have to decide which certificates to trust (or let your browser
vendor decide).

You can always accept the certificate (once) anyway if you're
reasonably sure that you did, indeed, connect to
{alioth|vasks|wagner}.debian.org (and not some other host
impersonating this machine).
