I'm experiencing a strange error when connecting to a web server with a self signed certificate. I've added the Root and Intermediate certs to the system CA bundle, and can `curl` against the server without any errors or using the `k` flag. But Python (via requests) raises an error that I can't seem to figure out at all with the `peer_certificate` method. Below you'll find the specific error:

```
import requests
requests.get('https://localhost:9200/_cluster/health', verify='/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt')
