One of my users for VPN Mgr is seeing SSL certification errors when I try and download the files for the VPN from GitHub. Log is here 16:33:11.484 T:1962651648 NOTICE: special://profile/ is mapped to: special://ma - Pastebin.com and the interesting bit (to me at least) is:

I noticed he was seeing this outside of my add-on too with what looks to be an update check of some kind (see earlier in the log). He's saying he's using a vanilla LE8 build on an RPi 2 with PIA, which is EXACTLY my configuration, yet I see no SSL errors. Doesn't seem like a pervasive problem as I've only had it reported to me once.
Any clues on what could be causing this? I found this thread, but I'm clueless as to why someone with exactly the same setup as me is seeing this problem and I'm not
Kodi 17 Krypton - SSL issues
Any ideas?
