having problems with ssl on mac os x

[mediafinance]

http = httplib2.Http(ca_certs='/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt')

that line in particular, i think is giving me this error:

SSLError: [Errno 185090057] _ssl.c:340: error:0B084009:x509 certificate routines:X509_load_cert_crl_file:PEM lib

im on os x so i had to create that above directory because that is a linux way of doing things.

im stuck on how to get this going in os x.
