[Python-apps-team] Bug#633093: hg: cannot clone https urls (abort: error: _ssl.c:340: error:00000000:lib(0):func(0):reason(0))

[Jonathan Nieder]

Package: mercurial
Version: 1.8.3-1

Hi,

Whenever I try to clone an HTTPS url, I get this error:

| $ hg clone https://bitbucket.org/anders/xnu
| abort: error: _ssl.c:340: error:00000000:lib(0):func(0):reason(0)

What does that mean?  Known problem?

Jonathan
