Great, I'll do it. Thanks for the feedback.

It's just an error in the released image that you installed. It's been 
fixed already and next image will work.
Now you need to install it. You can use the Synaptic package manager or 
the command line:

sudo apt-get install ca-certificates

git-cl is installed but the https connection to Rietveld server won't 
work without ca-certificates.
