Feature changed by: Andreas Jaeger (a_jaeger) Feature #307872, revision 10 Title: CAcert root certificate as a part of openSUSE - openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed + openSUSE Distribution: Evaluation by engineering manager Priority Requester: Desirable Info Provider: Jaromír Červenka (cervajz) Requested by: Jaromír Červenka (cervajz) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: CAcert (http://www.cacert.org/) is organisation issuing free SSL certificates for everyone. It could be useful, when root certificate (http://www.cacert.org/index.php?id=3) will be a standard part of openSUSE distro. A lot of people and companies (http://www.cacert.org/stats.php) using their certificates. Some other Linux/*nix distributions has CAcert root certificate also included (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cacert#Inclusion_status) . Discussion: #1: Satoru Matsumoto (heliosreds) (2010-12-20 15:24:29) Since openSUSE 11.3 has been already released, I've changed the target pruduct from 11.3 to distribution. And, please explain how we can implement this feature in our distribution, if you can. #2: Richard Bos (rbos) (2010-12-20 16:24:03) (reply to #1)
please explain how we can implement this feature in our distribution, if you can. Valid question. I'm not an expert in this matter, but let me try. The root key can be retrieved from: http://www.cacert.org/index.php?id=3 And i think that it should be installed in: /etc/ssl/certs
#3: Guanjun He (gjhe) (2010-12-21 05:32:14) (reply to #2) From openSuSE11.1,we added a new package openssl-certs,which deliver all certs departed from the original openssl package.And the left work is to update this package if needed.(And,updating the package dependency is needed, and I guess this should already been done.) -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/307872
