The main problem is that Let's Encrypt root certificates expired at the
end of October and OpenSSL 1.0.2 has problems with the new ones:

For whatever reason it still works on Windows, but AOO on Linux and
macOS cannot connect to our Update Feed and the extensions site anymore.

Workaround 3 (mentioned in the article) would be a possibility to fix
that on the server side.
