Description: units_cur cannot connect to server.

Additional info:
* units 2.11-3

Steps to reproduce: run units_cur as root.

$ sudo /usr/bin/units_cur
Error connecting to currency server. <urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed (_ssl.c:645)>

I checked the source, and it's attempting to connect to `https://rss.timegenie.com/forex.xml`. The certificate is fine in Firefox and Chromium, and has been verified by "Let's Encrypt". However, I cannot connect via command line with curl or wget, so it could be a general problem with the system not having the certificate.
