@p-linnane Sorry for my not knowing, but what does "certificate errors" mean in this context?

---

I can open a separate issue to discuss it if preferred (cc @miccal) but I'd strongly urge reverting this if there's something moderately transient or repairable. It's part of a set of casks (marathon, marathon2, marathon-infinity) all from the same place and repo, are they having the same issue? Indeed, having any of those without aleph-one would be weird given the nature of the game/engine. I brought this up a few years ago in #88604; most of that rationale holds up, with the major difference being the project has moved to a more regular release cadence.

@Amorymeltzer Those other casks are also having the same issue, but I didn't get around to removing them. Basically the certificate chain of the homepage is incomplete. See here. This is causing livecheck to fail.

I am open to reverting this if you'd like to open a PR and reach out to upstream about their certificate. They can use https://whatsmychaincert.com to generate a correct certificate chain.

[Amorymeltzer]

Thanks for that. I hadn't realized there was an issue: all four are in my (brief) .brew_livecheck_watchlist and I haven't run into any problems with livchecking them on my end.

The livecheck was changed most recently in afdf3c0 to get around the GitHub issues, am I correct that those got worked out on GitHub's end? I might have my press releases mixed up.

[p-linnane]

No, that was a permanent change on GitHub's end. If you want to open the PR to restore aleph-one I can write a new set of livechecks for those 4 casks using an alternative method of checking GitHub.

Thanks @p-linnane, I appreciate it. If that works for you it works for me! #142900. I do wonder why I wasn't seeing the same issues, I assume I've trusted it in the past or something. I've passed your note along to their contact.

Certificate chain errors at alephone.lhowon.org have now been fixed. Thanks @p-linnane for the info, and @Amorymeltzer for bringing this to my attention!
