Linux installation: cannot verify get.docker.com's certificate #14650

Description

@matm

The recommanded installation procedure on Linux with wget is failing:

wget -qO- https://get.docker.com/ | sh

returns no error (exit 0) but nothing happen either.

Trying a simple wget https://get.docker.com reveals an SSL certificate verification issue:

--2015-07-15 10:44:50--  https://get.docker.com/
Resolving get.docker.com (get.docker.com)... 52.0.250.56, 52.6.66.251, 54.210.203.88
Connecting to get.docker.com (get.docker.com)|52.0.250.56|:443... connected.
ERROR: cannot verify get.docker.com's certificate, issued by `/C=US/O=GeoTrust Inc./CN=RapidSSL SHA256 CA - G3':
  Unable to locally verify the issuer's authority.
To connect to get.docker.com insecurely, use `--no-check-certificate'.

So, unfortunately, passing the --no-check-certificate option to grab the script is the only way to go at the moment.
