Details

Since curl 7.18.1 a ca-cert bundle is no longer installed in /usr/share/curl as it was with previous versions. They now provide a compile time (make ca-bundle) option for downloading and generating an up-to-date bundle. I (and others, I suspect) use this file as the tls_trust_file with mail clients such as msmtp.

Attached is a patch to the curl PKGBUILD that includes this option and installs the bundle to /usr/share/curl

See http://curl.haxx.se/changes.html for more.

Note that this adds perl-libwww as a make dependency (since the make ca-bundle uses it to download the latest certificates).
