Hi, I am trying to install Krew on a VM in an organization that relies on specific CA inspection. The install is failing with the following error message:
W0317 15:15:04.116668 18312 update.go:168] failed to update index "default": fetch index at "C:\\Users\\\\xxxx\\.krew\\index\\default" failed: command execution failure, output="fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/krew-index.git/': SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate\n": exit status 128
failed to update the following indexes: default: fetch index at "C:\\Users\\\\xxxx\\.krew\\index\\default" failed: command execution failure, output="fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/krew-index.git/': SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate\n": exit status 128Is this a known issue, and if so is there a workaround or fix?
