Hello All,
Thanks for reporting this and I am happy to announce that we have found a solution It seems that earlier versions of Transport Layer Security (TLS) had some security flaws in them and so Github updated to use the latest version of TLS (version 1.2) when downloading files, as noted in @mostapha 's post.
I found a way to make sure that all Ladybug and Honeybee components use the new version of TLS when downloading files in the background and you can see that I have made the changes here:
So, if you reinstall your userobjects from the github right now, you will no longer experience any issues like this. Because this is a serious situation that will affect nearly all new users, I think that we will also update all of the components on food4Rhino in an attempt to stop this issue before more people are affected. We will post back here when we update the food4Rhino version.
Thanks again,
-Chris
