The issue resolved itself with the apache ssl update shortly after I filed this bug, but it still shouldn't fail as hard as it did.

i don't see what else syncpackage should do; if urlopen() fails it should just pass the error up; doing anything else is just hiding the problem.

Instead of crashing hard, I would think it would output a standard error as opposed to a complete python crash. Something like, "Unable to verify SSL signature. Try again later" or something of that respect. The implementation as it exists causes Apport to think there's a bug in the code when, in fact, there is not. It's just failing, but the fail shouldn't invoke a crash report.
