I am trying to build MikTeX on a fresh Ubuntu 22.04 but got an error about curl: (60) SSL certificate problem. The build process has worked before.

I build from source following the official instructions. I basically cloned the source at , then built with:

mkdir -p build/ && (cd build/ && cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/opt/miktex .. && sudo cmake --build . --target install)

The error message is below. I've tried updating with apt, to no avail. I am not sure where to trace to problem, and the which certificate expired. I looked into the install instructions linked above. But there is no mention of curl.

Does anyone know how to fix the issue?

More details here:
curl failed to verify the legitimacy of the server and therefore could not
establish a secure connection to it. To learn more about this situation and
how to fix it, please visit the web page mentioned above.
