- <div class="paragraph"><p>The quickest way to build aria2 is just type following commands:</p></div>

- <div class="content">

- <div class="paragraph"><p>Since 1.1.0, aria2 checks the certificate of HTTPS servers by default.
 
- If you build with HTTPS support, I recommend to supply the path to the
 
- CA bundle file. For example, in Debian the path to CA bundle file is
 
- <em>/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt</em> (in ca-certificates package). This
 
- may vary depending on your distribution. You can give it to
 
- configure script using --with-ca-bundle option:</p></div>
 
- <div class="listingblock">
 
- <div class="content">
 
- <pre><tt>$ ./configure --with-ca-bundle='/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt'
 
- $ make</tt></pre>
 
- </div></div>
 
- <div class="paragraph"><p>Without --with-ca-bundle option, you will encounter the error when
 
- accessing HTTPS servers because the certificate cannot be verified
 
- without CA bundle. In such case, you can specify the CA bundle file
 
- using aria2’s --ca-certificate option.  If you don’t have CA bundle
 
- file installed, then the last resort is disable the certificate
 
- validation using --check-certificate=false.</p></div>
