Pyviomi introduced weird SSL CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED errors through anaconda3 jupyterhub

Describe the bug

Installing pyviomi on our anaconda3 python Jupyerhub server has introduced strange SSL errors to my environment, that even on pip uninstall pyviomi still persist, which is incredibly frustrating.

[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:1129)

• This is referenced here and on a handful of additional steps: https://communities.vmware.com/t5/VMware-code-Discussions/how-to-configure-ssl-on-system-so-that-i-can-use-ssl-option/td-p/2954539

My main concern is why on uninstall does this still persist.

Reproduction steps

1. install pyviomi using pip
2. try to run hub but cannot spawn server
3. uninstall pyviomi out of an abundance of frustration
4. still cannot spawn hub, rolling back VM snapshot to get out of this nonsense

Expected behavior

Pyviomi pip install works like any other. maybe the maintainers can provide guidance on vcenter ssl necessary to install properly

Additional context

No response

Start by reproducing the reported sequence on an Anaconda3 JupyterHub server: install pyviomi with pip, attempt to spawn the hub, uninstall it, and check the SSL CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED error. Determine whether the issue is specific to the environment or installation, and document the cause and any required vCenter SSL guidance.
