>I had the same problem as JP with the CA certs using a msys1/mingw32
build.

Ah, you see, I was assuming JP was using msys2 not 1. I'll see if I
can even find the msys1 installer anywhere.

msys2 patches curl so it looks "above" the bin folder and then down
into /ssl/certs of the executable. Since we keep the path structure in
the installed kicad. I'll give Nick the modifications to NSIS to
install as such.

But that's what source control is for.....
