What is the proper way to fix the following error message that appears in splunkd.log from the Splunk_TA_paloalto minemeld_feed.py script?

ERROR ExecProcessor - message from "/opt/splunk/bin/python2.7 /opt/splunk/etc/apps/Splunk_TA_paloalto/bin/minemeld_feed.py" /opt/splunk/etc/apps/Splunk_TA_paloalto/bin/splunk_ta_paloalto/requests/packages/urllib3/connectionpool.py:843: InsecureRequestWarning: Unverified HTTPS request is being made. Adding certificate verification is strongly advised. See: https://urllib3.readthedocs.io/en/latest/advanced-usage.html#ssl-warnings

This question had an answer of putting in verify=false into the script which won't survive upgrades and is bad practice in general.

The Minemeld server has a valid certificate on it, not a self-signed one but it appears that the CA is not trusted. How can I install the proper CA to complete the certificate validation?
