Caveats

The OAuth callback handling uses Ruby's "faraday" library. Unfortunately Faraday may easily miss the directory where the common CAs are stored. So the path to the certificates on the system needs to be provided:

config.omniauth :google_oauth2, '398593918966-0fpmit0pb6ptio1ndsie5dfcnqhei63l.apps.googleusercontent.com', 'uRQq_dLs1kx7l5sYIyEyPVRc', :client_options => {:ssl => {:ca_path => '/etc/ssl/certs'}}
