Research direction
Investigate the SSL/TLS certificate issue by checking the system's certificate store and aria2 configuration. Review the Persepolis source code for how it invokes aria2 (likely via Python subprocess). Look at the aria2 documentation for ca certificate configuration. Check if the issue is specific to FreeBSD 11.1 where ca root nss.crt is located. Consider updating the app to handle certificate verification more gracefully or provide user guidance.
