I added custom Certificate Authority cert to /usr/share/ca-certificates and run update-ca-certificates, my CA is in /etc/ca-certificates.conf and works with wget, curl.. But doesnt work with Firefox or Chrome, I cant see it. In Debian/Ubuntu it works. Thank you

Pkg versions:
Firefox 10.0.2-1
nss 3.13.1-2
ca-certificates 20120212-1
This task depends upon

Firefox does not use the system certificates but has it's own set hard coded and compiled in. If this does work elsewhere this is most likely due to patches we wont add.

I cant find any patches for Firefox, so I made my script. It would by nice to have central cert repository, but you are right, we can not change it. Maybe upstream?
