Alexander Delanoe reported (in
https://lists.debian.org/debian-www/2017/01/msg00080.html )that submit
CD vendors using the form in the website fails for certain HTTPS URL.

The script fails with:

The following entries were submitted:
Submission-Type: new
Vendor: Test vendor
URL: https://france.debian.net
The specified web site (https://france.debian.net) cannot be accessed.
The error message returned was: 500 Can't connect to
france.debian.net:443 (certificate verify failed)
If you don't understand this error message, please contact us.
Entry not submitted!

Paul Wise pointed me to https://wiki.debian.org/ServicesSSL which
explains that the machines administered by DSA have a custom setup for
SSL verification, and shows a workaround for scripts using Perl.

I'm submitting also a patch for the submit_cdvendor.pl

I've mad a small script (attached) to test the relevant code, and it
seems to work as intended.

I'm not sure how to handle this bug. My understanding:

* Wait some days for other people to review, and then commit the patch
into git.debian.org/git/debwww/cgi.git

* After that, add the following tags:

User: debian-admin@lists.debian.org
Usertags: needed-by-DSA-Team ssl

And forward to DSA for deployment, I guess, but how? Creating an RT
ticket and pointing to this bug? or are the usertags enough?

* When the website is fixed, I'll edit
https://wiki.debian.org/ServicesSSL to add the script in the "users"
section.

Please correct me if there is a better way.

Thanks
