    Hey !
    Thanks for the report! You're right, it's the Fedora 44 cert path change. Cloudsmith's setup.rpm.sh writes sslcacert=/etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt into the .repo file, and Fedora 44 dropped that path.

    I've opened a ticket on Cloudsmith.

    You can use this workaround until Cloudsmith ships a fix:

    sudo sed -i '/^sslcacert=/d' /etc/yum.repos.d/task-task.repo
    sudo dnf makecache --refresh
    sudo dnf install -y task
  2. added

    @vmaerten Did Cloudsmith ever respond to your ticket? I'm facing this in a brand new Cloudsmith repo as well.
