Build system (which is a chroot) didn't have openssl or ca-certificates
packages installed. That hasn't been a problem so far because we
haven't used https:// for git previously.

I've updated the packages on the build system, but it would be nice
if we had a clearer error message when the problem is "we now
depend on some packages that we didn't previously and so you
should install them".
