Argument '-k' ignored for not checking SSL certificate #19611
Description
Ran spack with -k option so as to not check SSL certificates. First line of output indicates that I asked for --insecure and will not check SSL certificates. Spack proceeds to fail install hdf5 because of a certificate verification problem.
Error Message
$ https_proxy=someproxy:someport spack -k install hdf5
