-- License     : BSD-style
-- Maintainer  : Vincent Hanquez <vincent@snarc.org>
-- Stability   : experimental
-- Portability : unix only
--
-- this module is portable to unix system where there is usually
-- a /etc/ssl/certs with system X509 certificates.
--
-- the path can be dynamically override using the environment variable
-- defined by envPathOverride in the module, which by
-- default is SYSTEM_CERTIFICATE_PATH
