+``cacerts``
+ Path to file containing a list of PEM encoded certificate authorities
+ that may be used to verify an SSL server's identity. The form must be
+ as follows::
+
+ -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
+ ... (certificate in base64 PEM encoding) ...
+ -----END CERTIFICATE-----
+ -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
+ ... (certificate in base64 PEM encoding) ...
+ -----END CERTIFICATE-----
+
+ This feature is only supported when using Python 2.6. If you wish to
+ use it with earlier versions of Python, install the backported
+ version of the ssl library that is available from
+ ``http://pypi.python.org``.
+
+ You can use OpenSSL's CA certificate file if your platform has one.
+ On most Linux systems this will be ``/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt``.
+ Otherwise you will have to generate this file manually.
